Thank You....Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I just want you to know that at least this non military person doesn't take forgranted what ever sacrafices you may have made to help keep America and your fellow Americans free.
I'm also proud to be a member of this great forum along with you Ladies and Gents.

My last duty station was MCAS Futenma, Okinawa where I spent most of my time as a crewchief flying CH-46's on and off ships in the middle of the night. Like Docwinkle, I missed Desert Storm although the war was the reason I enlisted while still in college.
I've not worked with many Army or Air force, but the Navy Corpsman I had the pleasure of knowing - especially the ones brave enough to fly with me
- were incredible people and I really miss them.PS to nm6869usmc - My Dad was Huey pilot in Nam and was eventually flying A6's and EA6B's towards the end. He always talks about Marble Mountain and being shot down in the Huey's but I don't know what year that was.
My hat is off to anyone that survived their time over there.
