I sadly recall the thousands of WW 1 veterans I worked with when I served at Madigan AMC at Ft Lewis WA....back in the 1970s...
those guys were in their 70s in those days.... and now they are all gone....
and now, the thousands of WW 2 vets we also worked with back then, are all in their 90s now...
most of them are gone already, and the last of them disappearing...
I was truly blessed to have known those men, as part of my life's experience..
I am the better for it and very fortunate to have had the unique experience...
And our nation is a better place for they having existed....
and now sadly, many of our finest, who sacrifices so much as young men, are once again leaving us..
our compensation is that they are going to a place, that they will be forever young and will only know
peace for now and eternity..
from high above, I hope they still pray for our nations, that they sacrificed for and continue to watch over us.
A salute of respect for their service and a heart felt Thank YOU. for what they did for our people and our nation...
God Be With Each of You....You made we real Americans proud to be your sons and daughters..
