I would just like to say "Thank You!" to all the Veterans this Memorial Day. I can't express how much I appreciate the blood, sweat, and tears you have given for our country. God Bless each and every one of you, have a great holiday!!

I would also like to thank all our veterans, especialy to those who are combat vets and to those who paid the ultimate price. At the Punch Bowl Memorial Cemetary in Hawaii the words under the main statue reads: THE SOLEMN PRIDE THAT MUST BE YOURS TO HAVE LAID SO COSTLY A SACRIFICE UPON THE ALTAR OF FREEDOM SEMPER FIDELIS Randy
