I warms me to see the patriotic words in these forums, not just in this thread, but all the time.

I am thankful for not just the warriors who made the ultimate sacrifice, but those back home who support the ones out there fighting and standing their post.

The military isn't for everyone. Our lives guide us in different directions and the military doesn't fit all our paths or something prevents us from taking that road.

However, I am very honored to be part of a country that, for the most part, supports tour troops.

Semper Freakin' Fi, my friends!

Now ... who's getting the beer for the BBQ tomorrow? I already got the meat.
