So, as we give thanks as a Nation, a family, or just as an individual be sure to include in these thoughts the more than 1,000,000 service men and women who have given their lives defending, in one way or another, our country and way of life since the Revolutionary War.
Whatever our own issues and troubles may be, we still owe them our everlasting gratitude.
Happy Thanksgiving
Come back on the 28th as we return to North Carolina, meet me there, as usual, at 9:00 am.
To see Vietnam memorials from any state in the country, and a few outside of it, click on the state name on the left side of this page.
If you are following along at all, you will have seen that a number of you, like Mike Minnick and several others, have responded to my request to send me memorials you have seen in your area or where you may have traveled. These submissions help expand the knowledge of how we have remembered the men and women who served or were lost in 'Nam and you help to honor them. If you have any such photos, I would love to see them. Please send them along to the email at the left and I will gladly share them here.
