I gave my support to some troops and it felt great!

Thursday, I had occasion to be on a rather large Air Force training base and I passed a column of very young, very new recruits marching in formation in full battle dress. As I passed they all looked at me driving alongside and I gave a hearty thumbs up and told them "Help is on the way". I got nothing but smiles, waves and thumbs up.

These poor guys arent to blame, they are in the worst position imaginable.

3. Absolutely AGREE. Thanks for remembering our

citizen soldiers. Without politics, thank a vet now and then too.
