I felt like starting this today.


This year is the first year that I will go into a school (my boy's school) to talk about my service. It took 20 years to be able to do that.


I have two men in my signature:

There are many men that served, but I want to take this year to look at the latest crop of veterans.

I would ask that you keep in mind this year, that there are a large number of vets that don't look like vets. Whether they are 43 yr old men like me or 22 year olds.


While The Greatest Generation is dying, there are new veterans to fill in their space on parade, and for me that is the saddest part about this time of year.

This is a good article:
