Thanks and a special shout out to COMUSNAVCENT, the Great White Ghost of the Arabian Coast, Desert Rats, Seal team 6 and my boys and girls in ASUSWA, now Naval Support Activity Bahrain.

I thank you too, 23 years, US Army here, but today is for those gave it all. May we hold their memory tight to our breast forever.
Thanks to all veterans...We have the freedom because of your selfless service.. Don't forget the ones that did not return. One of my buddies is serving now. He is also a HAMBer....Thanks guys and gals....God Bless you.
I can't speak for the rest of you, but I'm undeserving of the Freedoms allowed me by those who gave that ultimate sacrifice. I'm trying, but I'll never meet the standard.
Happy veterans day to all the men and women that i'm proud to share this day with. brought up an old thread so we don't have to start a new one
Thank You all for your service. there are no words I can use to express my gratitude what you have done, have given for this Great Nation.
