Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...hope you had a great day.

I spent most of the day on the phone, notifying and checking. I feel like I have an elephant sitting on my head....fierce headache. Ibuprofen taken and probably a nap.

What an honor mountainlion! *Hugs*

There a many who serve that don’t speak of their service...especially to those who did not serve as well.

I once read an article by a Marine Chaplain who said...you put all these experiances in a closet in your mind & you don’t open that door unless your speaking with someone else who has a closet as well. (not quoted for exact language)

I've been looking through some old photos lately - some things I had utterly forgotten. Here's a photo of my Father and my son, Daniel:

Where are the survivors of the massacre at Benghazi? The silence of the Obama Regime on this question is deafening!

Must retire – the 0445 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.
