I find there are very few in my circle of friends and customers that served. At one time it did not bother me. I never thought about it.
Recently I have..... not in a negative way but more-so  to understand.

There was a period of time when the military was NOT the option young men wanted... and for many good reasons. I always took the attitude that ( at least the people I know and are part of my circle of friends ) everyone SHOULD and has opportunity to contribute to their nations greatness in some way. Today, however, I see a HUGE migration to our military by young men and women who are true Patriots and ones we should be very proud.

Recently, while visiting Charleston, SC, Jane & I visited the Citidel military school. We sat and spoke with young men about what they wanted and about the Citidel. I am pleased to say there is genuine optimism and greatness within these young folks souls. What a great feeling! More-so than what I saw in the 1960's ... that's for certain.

So HAIL to the the Vets and those PATRIOTS who keep the light shining bright.  And God Bless those serving and those who will be stepping in to assume the posts.
