It’s so great to see evidence that America is NOT forgetting who our heroes really are.

    Aside from the fact that these men and women volunteer to serve their nation it is always the case that we hear/read comments like this about them – “If he were here today, he would be explaining he was only doing his job,”

    OUR job is to make sure these courageous men and women continue to be remembered for their sacrifice on our behalf.

    You are sooooo right, Leta!

    It’s great to see that some states are paying attention, and realize who really should be honored.

    I see Calendar 2008 in this Hero’s future – how nice to see him honored.

  5. SammyD Says:

    Oh forgot to say The War Tapes is showing in Denver – going to see it tomorrow…………

    Yes, Sammy D. he has my vote for the calendar, too. Those middle schoolers can say the name of their school with pride.

    It is great to see our heroes being recognized. The American Legion from my small town contacts the family of a service member and sends them a $10 check. It is not much but they are remembered. It would be great to see more highways, streets & bridges named after our wonderful military guys.
