I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day. Remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for Freedom.

Indeed. And please offer prayers for their safe return to my brother-in-law, who is on his second tour in Afghanistan, and John Marks' son, who is on, I believe. his fourth.

Thanks to all.

My son is home safe from his fifth deployment to Afghanistan.

that our community is extremely grateful for men such as himself.  The constant deployments are such a selfless sacrifice to make.   Same for you, John.  We all wish your brother-in-law a safe return to his home and loved ones.  I was thinking many of these men and women today were about nine years old in 2001.  They have grown up preparing themselves to sacrifice.  What a great generation.
