Respond here please. Just a "here" will suffice. No need to go in to detail, no need for anyone to give credentials either. Just post if you served. Doesn't matter how long, either.

Grace, this is a beautiful and worthy thread. I join the lovely syrenn in a hearty to all who respond. "Thank you" all for protecting our freedoms. Love you.

Umm thanks, but I did not defend our freedoms. I just got sent to another country to kill people over there who never had done anything to us.
Well except kill us for invading their country.

Sometimes its OK to be gracious and just accept a "Thank you" when it is offered. Whether you believe you deserve it or not is irrelevant.

Count so far is 19.

Aqua, I thank them all for their service whether they were drafted or joined on free will. But my intent is for something else. I know of more, but they have not posted. Which is yet party to the question(s) I have. This is a sort of experiment to see if what I was told is true for the majority of veterans opinions...and also to know just how many veterans are members of this board.

Just waiting to see what your diabolical plan is.

Me too. Shall we sit together? You get the popcorn, I'll bring the beer.

One of the bestest right here. ♥

 

[Grace]

I think I am pleased at seeming to be diabolical.

Kahlua and milk for me, please. Beer tastes nasty.

The best summation of the Vietnam War I have ever seen.

Subscribing to follow to the outcome here and sooooo proud of our many USMB-ers who have served.
