    I know we have active-duty, prior-service, Reservists, National Guard, retirees, spouses, and children on this site.  If everyone could take a minute tonight or tomorrow, visit the USO (http://www.uso.org) to see what you can do for our troops stationed and deployed around the world.  Or, just say hello and shake a servicemember's hand.  You just might make someone smile.

    I would just like to say, thanks to everyone for their service and sacrifices, and because of all of you, Americans have the greatest military - and the greatest country - in the world.   

    Here's to Memorial Day and what it stands for.  Never forget!

    What sounds like thunder is a comforting voice
    When what is beautiful looks broken and crushed
    And I say I don't know you
    But you say it's finished"

    I am a Marine's daughter a Sailor's granddaughter & an USAF Medic's wife and I cry my eyes out every year filled pride for all of our Military Forces, spouses and children. I know I am one of the lucky ones because my family came home. So Memorial Day has always been a quiet day in my house filled with rememberance and thanks. So to all of our Military and their families THANK YOU!!!
