Veterans Day Tribute
Wild Thing’s comment……..
I love when we go out and often run into someone we have never met that is a Veteran. Where we live here in Sarasota there are many Vetrans since so many come here to retire. A couple of days ago a couple of tables over from us a man was sitting with his wife and he was wearing a baseball cap with WW11 on it and it gave me a chance to just stop by the table and thank him.
And yesterday it happened again, the man yesterday had a t-shirt on for the Marine Corps. The shirt said, “one shot one kill no remorse.” I loved it and it was especially neat because I have a dog tag on my key chain that says exactly the same thing. I showed it to him and thanked him and we bought his lunch. He said he had been a Marine for 239 years and loved it.
What an honor it is to meet these Veterans, a special moment in a person’s life to be able to thank them.
Thank you Veterans!!!!!!
….Thank you Mark for sending this to me.

I remember every day.
God Bless you, Tom, me too.
Thank you, both, TomR and Mark… we will never forget your commitment to this wonderful country that we love, and your courage and strength…never.
God Bless you both and all here at PCFZ that served.
Chrissie, I too, have seen our quiet veterans wearing their USA service covers. I believe it is a wonderful sign of both: *the fight* continues, and *the silent majority*. I guess I WANT to believe that! We will definitely be buying hats for our Navy guy!
Love you all!!
Jan, thank you for sharing that, well said.
