I've read this board for a long time, but never registered to post until I saw this thread. It's a good feeling when you see that people appreciate and respect the military for what they do and the sacrifices they make to stand up and protect the Stars and Stripes. To all who served before me, I thank you. To those who serve with me, I respect you. To those who will serve after me, I support you.

I personally was never in the military nor has anyone else in my family as far as I can remember, I guess my grandfather was a merchant marine if that counts. I do have some very close friends that have served though. What I'm trying to say is, even though I have never been there I do respect my rights to freedom and for that I salute all of you who have contributed to me being able to have those rights. There is no grater sacrifice then that of a man or women who is willing to give their life for our rights. So for that, not only just this one day on May 28 but for all others I say thank you to our vets, salute.

A special weekend to remember those who have served their country. A hearty thank you to all who served to preserve our great nation. I was not in the military but my brother served in the USN for 25 years.

[AllThumz]

I respect those who served before me, with me, and after me; and I have the highest respect for those who served and never came home.

Yes, I'm glad to be an American.

Wishing all an enjoyable Memorial Day. Is it me or are all good fishermen VETS. And why is it I have a hard time remembering things but I can still remember my serial number and weapon number(before SS numbers.)I guess fisherman and soilders like to tell big stories. THANKS TO ALL VETS, WIVES AND PARENTS OF VETS FOR MAKING THIS COUNTRY WHAT IT IS TODAY!!!!

The ranks of WWII veterans is thinning daily. Please make it a point to listen to their stories, and thank them for what they did while they are still here to hear it. My restaurant is near a retirement community, and we get a lot of WWII vets in on a regular basis. We've lost 6 so far this year, including one who was in WWII, Korea (where he was a POW), and Vietnam, and one who was on the beach at Normandy. They won't be here for forever, so thank them now.

So all you Navy guys, does the fact that I was in the Army explain why I'm always in waders when I'm on the river as all those boats go by? Perhaps I joined the wrong service...
