We owe our military everything. My youngest grandson, Nicholas, is named for a dear school friend of DS2 who didn't make it back. DS2 was in Afghanistan. He doesn't talk about it much. His first 4th of July back from deployment when the fireworks went off, he hit the dirt and took his older brother with him! He only talks about the things he saw with other military friends. He has been back a while, but DH who served in Vietnam says you never forget war.
Thank you for your service Weldman, and thanks to all others who served on BYH.
