[slideshow] God Bless our Veteran's of past and present. May this generation raise up a new and valiant set of defenders who will keep our honor bright.

A special thanks to those I served with across the world. And another thanks to my immediate family who served: Dad, my brother Karl, Sister Sonja, DjaDja, Great Auntie Josephine, Great Uncle Walter, Uncle Joe, My Father-in-law, Great Grand Dad (in-law), and of course the lovely Army nurse I stole from the ranks at Ft Benning...my wife.
