Right back at ya Jim and to all we left behind that night but mine will be a tall glass of Buff Trace at 17:30 hrs this evening.We were in pre-flight mode about this time,topping off tanks,loading 7.62 and flares for our mission up North but never realized we would be diverted to a nasty hill battle which would change our lives forever...Salute my friend!

Toasted to you two, and to Speedy, and the Artful Dodger, yesterday evening.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

I'm glad the both of you made it home. May God hold close those brave souls who didn't.
Copy 17:30. It would truly be an honor. Thank you.
