Happy July 4th Let's thank our vets -- all of them
On the battlefield, the military pledges to leave no soldier behind. As a nation, let it be our pledge that when they return home, we leave no veteran behind.
-------Dan Lipinski
Any soldier worth his salt should be antiwar. And still there are things worth fighting for.
------------Norman Schwarzkopf
Although a soldier by profession, I have never felt any sort of fondness for war, and I have never advocated it, except as a means of peace.
---------Ulysses S. Grant
The patriot volunteer, fighting for country and his rights, makes the most reliable soldier on earth.

"I have never met anyone who did not support our troops. Sometimes, however, we hear accusations that someone or some group does not support the men and women serving in our Armed Forces. But this is pure demagoguery, and it is intellectually dishonest."
"A 24-year-old former Marine who earned a Purple Heart after losing his leg in Afghanistan is now an underwear model. Mekahlo Medina reports on NBC4 News at 7 p.m. on Saturday, June 15, 2013."
Today, take some time to thank all our troops, especially our wounded heroes.
