I hope this comes out as serious as I mean it. I didn’t serve, I never picked up nerve to join, but then and now I appreciate everyone who has and is serving, without service folks we wouldn’t have a country to be proud of. I get pretty discouraged with all the rhetoric but I’ve never heard or seen evidence of a better place. I appreciate my granddaddy, a WWI vet, and my dad, a WWII vet, and all the vets before and since. I hope I qualify as a patriot but I thank the vets and the folks serving today and have full gratitude for what you have done.
