I'll probably stay in the National Guard until I retire. I enjoy the military, but I enjoy my civilian life, as well. In the guard I get the best part of the job, the deployments, without the hassle of active duty between deployoments.

Thank you Sir...

A good looking young man!!! Welcome!

Thank you so much for your service to our country and therefore to me and my family. God bless you.

I watched the flag pass by one day,
It fluttered in the breeze.
A young Army fellow saluted it,
And then he stood at ease..

I looked at him in uniform
So young, so tall, so proud,
With hair cut short and eyes alert
He'd stand out in any crowd.

I thought how many men like him
Had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign soil
How many mothers' tears?

How many pilots' planes shot down?
How many died at sea
How many foxholes were soldiers' graves?
No, freedom isn't free.

I heard the sound of Taps one night,
When everything was still,
I listened to the bugler play
And felt a sudden chill.

I wondered just how many times
That Taps had meant "Amen,"
When a flag had draped a coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.

I thought of all the children,
Of the mothers and the wives,
Of fathers, sons and husbands
With interrupted lives.

I thought about a graveyard
At the bottom of the sea
Of unmarked graves in Arlington.
No, freedom isn't free.

 
Enjoy Your Freedom &

God Bless Our Troops

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLUUTE!
