HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA....

Post by BOBO »

I lost my father in the Korean conflict. I lost my brother in Vietnam. All gave some, some gave all. Freedom demands a high tariff. God bless America!

And I would add the soldier's family.

There are still soldiers and Air Force personnel from your nation and mine still serving in Afghanistan. For the time being, anyway.

In the meantime, United States, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you...!

Happy 4th to everyone!

BOBO, I am so sorry to hear of your losses. My twin brother also served in the Vietnam War. Luckily, he came home in one piece! He and I have always been very close, and although he told me a couple of things that happened while he was there, there are some other things he absolutely refuses to talk about.

Yup, can understand that. Been to the first Desert Storm. Thankfully, I got out alive, some of my buddies didn't. Know the feeling of losing someone close/ Bless you .
Suicide is painless It brings on many changes and I will take my leave when I please.
