From this old Vietnam Vet & slightly before the calendar turns to Veteran's Day, November 11, a huge thank you goes out to those who served & serve.
When I say "serve", I speak not only of those who wore our country's great uniforms, but also of those Patriots at home who supported us (and support those currently serving) with their love and prayers. I refer to all, in & out of uniform, as "Servers".
Please do the following, if you are able:
1) WRITE those serving as NOTHING boosts morale more than letters from loved ones back in "The World".
2) If you see a uniformed person in a bar or restaurant, BUY them a drink, desert, a meal, or even pick up their check! If you can't do any of those, shake their hand & just say "Thanks!".
I've posted this on several boards. I'm not eloquent, but I can't say it any better, so I'll just repeat myself.
Thanks & God Bless my Brother & Sister "Servers".
Mike
