Thank you to all the volunteers and Sea Cadets that helped Operation American Soldier with their largest shipment to date. It was amazing to see so many people there to help. Young and Old, from many walks of life, giving their time freely to support our young men and women serving in harms way.
What is a Veteran A "Veteran": whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check payable to "The Untied States of America", for the amount of "up to, and including his life."
That is a honor, and there are way too many people in this country today, who no longer understand that fact.
"We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."
