    Exclamation Let's Say Thanks to our Troops!

    Hey all, Please take some time and go to this website and send an email to our service men and women. They are lonely and missing their families and every little bit helps. It only takes a few minutes out of your day to do this.

    Roger that, don't forget our military personnel and their families. My first Christmas in the service was on the DMZ in Korea. Turkey loaf in a C-Ration can heated on the engine of my M-60 tank. We tied up with an Infantry unit and they had hot rats that day as well. (Yep that long ago) Keep them in your prayers. (I can say that, right?)
