Ladies and Gentlemen:

While I never served(health) I have the utmost respect for each man and woman that donned the uniform of our coutry. My family has seen service in the Spanish American War, WWII, and "Nam. I have two uncles who served in the Pacific during WWII one in the Army and the other in the Navy. My older Brother was with the Army Engineers Corps as a demolition expert and tunnel rat in Vietnam.

I am proud to say that I now have two nephews in the service one is a Marine sniper serving in Iraq and the other is in the Air Force and now stateside.

I wish I could individually shake your hand and say this in person but this will have to do for now
--Thank-you! Stand proud and be pround youv'e earned it.

Bill
