Thank you to all of this great nation's heroes. From pencil pushers, remington raiders, 90-day-wonders, infantry, Dog-Faces, Fly-Boys, Squids, and
MARINES......Thank you for the freedom that you helped provide.

Just a great photo for this day
Marine Staff Sgt. Mark Graunke, Jr., Iraq War Vet, Hugs Pearl Harbor Survivor/WWII Vet Houston James (Graunke Lost a Leg, Hand, and Eye Defusing a
Bomb in Iraq)
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I am born and raised in East Los Angeles and reside in San Diego. In E.L.A. we have many liquor stores owned by foreign nationals and a big population
of homeless Viet-Nam veterans. It always pi$$ ed me off how these vets would walk into a foreigner owned liquor store and the foreign owner would
literally follow them around in there "to make sure they wouldn't steal anything". That really chaps my hide.
I know that foreigners have to take an exam to become citizens and I firmly believe that they should also be taught the value that we place in our
veterans and that without their sacrifices there would be no USA to immigrate to.

google is famous for posting 50 years of the flintstones, the muppets and other significant events for a week or so on it headliners, however , it is
very very sad and somewhat shameful they ignore Veterans day, not one poppy on its headliner.

Nothing extra on my Google site either. Although it's in English, I have a Mex IP. Maybe that's why.

Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.
