To all present and former millitary

“--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to thank you all for all that you have done for our freedom and to protect our way of life. I never served but my dad served in the Navy in the Korean War. I could never understand what it is like to be in a combat situation and being away from your family, friends, and way of life for so long but my thoughts and prayers go out for you. Finally, I want to thank all of the fallen that have given it all for our freedom, only two people have offered their life for us; the American soilder and Jesus.”

“God bless all the soldiers and their families.


”

“amen”

“I'll tell you it's a little horrifying to watch aircraft leave the flight deck armed to the teeth and come back empty. I can't imagine what it's like being on the ground actually in the thick of combat.”

“I share those sentiments, Jackstraw.”

“silent j = jackstraw?”

“MarkO = Jackstraw.

I logged in on his computer last night and he must have posted the above message and picture.”

“ok, now im really confused”

“Every generation of my family has served with myself being the only one to serve in a time of peace. I was lucky.

I try to make it a policy to thank our young people that have chosen to serve whenever I speak with them. I tend to carry Memorial Day with me throughout the year.”

“Yo Crash, I'm logged in on this computer as mARKo.
Last night I logged in on Jackstraw's computer as MarkO.”

“My hearty thanks to all those who have served our country. We appreciate your sacrifices.

FYI, here is a memory page for my uncle who as MIA in WWII:

“Thank you for all you have done to protect our freedom!”

“I realized it after a couple posts.”

“Thank you to the people who have been willing to fight and sometimes die for the freedom we enjoy in this country.”

“Thanks to the less than 1% who chose to serve! Thanks even more to those who have fallen, Gods peace to your families.
