Absolutely outstanding post Douglas. It is praitculraly catching given that idiot Kerry's recent remarks.I'd also point to what my current Commandant has been fond of saying for the last couple of years. He points to the fact that EVERY servicemember is performing a vital role. So, while you may have been laid up in a hospital, your service to your nation is no less admirable than anyone else's. We all swore the same oath when we enlisted (or were commissioned), and all swore to die, if need be, to defend what we hold dear. Kudos to you for your service, your patriotism, and the great post.Semper Fi
