If you know a vet (and we all do), be sure and shake their hand, give 'em a hug, but 'em a drink or all three. In any case, be sure and thank them for their service and their sacrifice!

You're right. Thank the ones that are here. Remember the ones who are not.
Remembering "Big Jim"... Col. James P. Anglum (USAF retired) 1918-1994
Received field commission in North Africa with Nazis all around them, stormed the Italian beaches (twice!), liberated Rome, worked on the first DEW line defense in Alaska, ran NORAD manpower division, Squadron Commander of Ent AFB(barracks are now the housing for atheletes at USOC), retired after 30 years of service. Tough as nails, soft as snow. SALUTE!
