Happy Veterans Day.
Happy Veterans Day to all who served. Some of us volunteered to serve to beat the draft, some were drafted but served proudly and today our military is made up of all volunteers. No matter how you came to serve it was an experience we'll never forget. Our lives were changed forever, Boys who grew up on farms in the mid west and never saw the ocean ended up in the navy.Some found themselves in combat just months after graduating high school.
Some things we never forget. Crazy times we spent with our buddies thousands of mile from home, standing watch in the middle of the night thinking of home and family. I know the song Sitting on the dock on the bay brings me back to my boat in Vietnam in 1968. I'm sure that just about every veteran has some thing that they hear or see that brings them right back to those day. Did you ever sit down and talk to your grand father or your father, I bet they can talk about their service like it was yesterday.
So happy Veterans Day to all my fellow veterans, here's to the good times and the bad and to the families who waited for our return.
