Besides thanking you for bringing Matt Urban to our attention I want to take a second here to thank you for your service to our country. Thank you.

Matt Urban did in a few short months time what I will never have a chance to do in my lifetime.
I served because I saw as did my Father and Grandfather that there IS something bigger than me. I took a lot of things away from Army service. Self motivation and self discipline. The US Military encourages those members to find ways to solve problems that no FM 000-000 manual took into account. That is why our boys won. They adapted on the spot.
I could not choose where I was born, but in America, I could chose to be ready to defend Her.
If you want to think Vets.... that is a good thing but thank a Vet by saying thanks and buying lunch/dinner for a man, or woman in Uniform.
