Things can be so very simple...........yesterday a friend stopped by and they had a friend with them who served 37 months in Iraq.....I gave the guy a pat on the back and simply said "thank you" and do you know he cried????? I cannot even imagine his baggage he carries with him on his shoulders.

When traveling through airports, if opportunity arises when seeing a guy/gal in uniform, for example in line behind me, will pay for their meal, drink, whatever. Least can do... spend 5 or 10 bucks here and there for what these gentlemen and ladies do for us.
