Veterans Day 2009

Post by allmylife »

Today is the day that we honor all who have served this wonderful nation. I would like to thank all of those warriors that have protected me all these years so I can now do my part. Even though I can not celebrate this day by drinking a few beers I am sure KBR has some non alcoholic stuff that might taste like it...

Once again thank you vets for serving our great country,

Shoot a PM my ass. That is some very valuable information and he needs to start his own thread to decimenate this information in detail. I am sure that there are many people could use it.

And thank you to all of the Veterans, I would not have had my chance to serve without them.

To those that went before, those going now, and those who will go in the future- thanks for keeping the wolves at bay while the rest of the herd relaxes.

I'm not too good with words, so on this Veterans Day, I'll let a better speaker than I say my thank you to those serving in harm's way............



“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
