Veterans Day 2008


On Veterans Day in the US, we honor our combat veterans.

Here is our favorite combat veteran:

Our dad, with great brother Booter, 1991
And though we never met him, Mom's dad:
Mom's dad, c. 1963, with his counterpart, a Captain in the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN)
To all who have served our nation in combat, thank you and may God bless you.

  4. We appreciate your Dad's service to this country -- and the sacrifices your whole family has made.

    This should be a sacred holiday instead of the afterthought and reason for sales it has become to so many.

    With respectful woofs,

    Jake and Just Harry

  15. Sorry we haven't been around much but we had to come by to see what you had to say about Veterans Day. You are always such an inspitation! Tell your dad that we thank him for his service. Our lives would be so different without people like him willing to make ultimate sacrifices.
