Guess ou might have to be a USA , Amuerican to appreciate a thread like this ,especially on this Lovely day of a Memorial Day.

i feel loved

Share the Love amongst everyone ....

on this day for all vets coast to coast and hawaii/alaska etc.

On Dad's side of the family I'm pretty much the only male who isn't a vet, thanks to my health being a bit messy from birth.

Think the last time either Dad or Mom's side of the family lost an immediate relative in combat was the Civil War.

One of Mom's uncles was captured by and escaped from the Germans several times during WW2 in Italy.

I have no children: of my brother's 3 boys only 1 is still in US Army, 2 have left, one with hearing damage, one with pretty serious PTSD.

While Memorial Day is technically about those who were killed, ALL of my living relative who are veterans have had their bodies damaged from being in the service and most of the now deceased ones did too. Damage ranges/ranged from that mentioned above, to spinal injury in a shipyard accident aboard a Destroyer in WW2, to having Agent Orange dumped on them, to gunshot wounds.

Being in the service will cost you, it is only a matter of, what price, exactly.

Huh, the more I look at this thread, there more it feels like there is an unspoken undercurrent here.

can you please tell me what that "undercurrent" is? i only intended it to be a mere holiday hiya to vets and their supporters, presumably you are a supporter too so hiya to you also

You are loved.

Thanks and hugs going out to you and all other vets.

You did the world proud.

Okay, but it may sound like something from out of left field, it feels like you and Jakki are flirting.

you are very perceptive i hope you can find your own happiness and soon.

awwwww thank you

I miss you.

Stick around.

That would make me extremely happy.
