Kind of a sad story in this regard. We've had a few soliders die in Iraq of late, and the community has come together for each. Full honors at the funeral, emergency vehicle processions, people on overpasses, the works. It's been great. A co-worker of mine is a Vietnam vet; he said nothing was done for almost all of the vets from his era that gave the sacrifice. He's glad it's changed now, and so am I...

So a special thanks to the Vietnam/Korean vets. It seems sometimes your sacrifice isn't mentioned as often as it should be....
