To all that have served, past or present, thank you for your service to our country.
We are still the greatest nation, EVER!
To those that have made the ultimate sacrifice, I stand today with a reverence.
Today is about those that have served and those that have indeed made the ultimate sacrifice.
Again, I thank each of you for your service.
U.S. Navy Veteran. Kosovo, OEF and OIF. Republic of Iraq 2004-2010
God Bless America!

WOW....
What a great response. Reminds me of a SeaBee Unit I was in, "We Build, We fight".....and at the end the day....we play a little steel guitar. 
Great hearing from each of you. If any of you plan to attend the Dallas show in 2015, I would love to meet you. First Round of Drinks on me.

USMC 1976-1980. I met Dick Sexton at Cherry Point. Remember when I was new there, the day, my Sgt. took me over to MACS-6 (a similar unit to ours) to introduce me around. He introduced me to the shop and said I play steel guitar. SSgt. Sexton was sitting at a bench working on a GRC-112. His head spun around, he stood up, stuck out his hand and said "Hi son, I'm Dick Sexton". Funny, I remember it like it was yesterday.
USMC is a small small world.
