Stxhunter, not saying I wouldn't come for a hunt but its not for "respect".
I have a uniform in the closet, I'll be buried in. My retirement flag is on the bookshelf, my other flag will be presented to my wife after they chunk me in the clay and play taps, I have risen from the dead possibly twice, I have the blood of fellow soldiers running through my veins from transfusions, I have scars from stem to stern. Ifin that ain't enough, I live in a country on the verge of losing everything every Patriot from the beginning has fought for. Any respect, I respect, is from career GI's and my grandkids.
What branch did you serve in?
When its time to fight, you fight like you are the third monkey on the ramp to get on Noah's Arc... and brother, it is starting to rain!
