My old regiment just had their annual muster (reunion/dining out) on Saturday and lots of old friends from WWII and later came together. Veterans of Afghanistan and Iraq met with veterans of WWII. Quite something.

War sees no color, sex, or ethnic background - wars only see blood shed by our heroes for our freedoms.

Thank you! And may the Lord watch over you and bless you every day.

My old unit never has any get togethers!

Re: A Thank You to all those who have served, and are serving
Sadly, the Air Force transfers folks in and out of units regularly. Very, very few have "homes". There is a group I'm associated with that formed because we all had the same job. While they have had get togethers, I've been unable to attend any as of yet. I keep telling myself I've got to just go, but life seems to get in the way. The best I manage is communicating on line, and on the phone with a couple I served with.
