Thank you Veterans!

My dad is a Veteran who served in Vietnam.  It wasn’t until I was older that he shared with me some of the experiences that he had while he was there.  Having signed up to serve when he was only 18, he left for Vietnam a boy and came back a man.  I listen to his stories and can only imagine what it must have been like for him leaving home for the first time to find himself in the middle of a war, dealing with constant fear, and wondering if he would ever make it home again.  I think of all the young men and women serving our country today.  What would we do without these brave men and women willing to lay down their lives to protect our freedom?  Words can not express the gratitude I feel toward them and the sorrow I feel for those who have lost their lives.  Thank you all from the bottom of my heart, you are truly Heroes!
