To every vette vet. Thank you for your sacrifices and the scars you carry. I was Navy Fast Attack Subs from 83-89 and may have been in stressful situations, but I wasnt looking down a barrel hoping I got a shot off before the other guy. Thankyou for keeping this country safe and I wish I could carry your burden for you.

EVERY day is Veteran's/Memorial/Independence Day to me.

NEVER FORGET.

Thanks to ALL, living or passed, who wrote that blank check.

"A veteran - is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to The 'United States of America', for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' "

We didn't do it to be thanked, but we have earned, deserve, and expect RESPECT.
