We paid our respect this morning my boys and I

One trooper from 187 th Airborne combat team rakkasan Korea
One trooper from 101st 502nd Vietnam

Flowers and Flags were placed and moments of silence for what it is worth to Honor these men.
Just putting this out so these fine Americans are not forgotten.

I am lucky that even though I am in the middle of 5 generations who served in every branch of the military except the Coast Guard. One grandson is still active. I think he may be a lifer like his Dad. Anyway we somehow managed to survive while doing our duty.
