Ah
I remember
Good luck to your family. They are lucky to have you. And a prayer for your soldier, Sailor, Marine or Coastie.
/not trying to one up you, for real, and thank you for your familys generations of service to country. I understand what that means. None of us have signed up since 1968 but then it was a one war after another back to 1778. Including both sides in 1862-65. Crazy.
Hoping we can put war in our past one day. Aloha kaua.
