Today is a special day for my dad Dan. He is a veteran of the Korean War. He fought in the battle at Chosin Reservoir. He has won a purple heart and bronze star. He is the most amazing man to his seven kids and wife of 58 years.

Thank you for your service, Marine.

I voted yesterday and thought of “you,” and how “you” fought for my right to be free.

I am praying for you.

The Marine Corps Museum near Quantico is very much worth visiting ...
Thanks, I was there a few years ago and was quite impressed.
In fact, today I'm wearing a USMC shirt that I bought there.
