Bless them for their service. You must be so proud.
The men of our family have been in every scrap since the French & Indian War, including the lesser known conflicts like the Creek War although I think we missed Black Jack Pershing's punitive expedition into Mexico . . . no professionals other than our sole Navy man, great uncle Henry who served with Dewey at Manila . . . citizen soldiers all.
Darn right we're proud! :-D
