Thank you for your service, brother. And to all others who served our nation in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos during that war. I have always had a special appreciation for Vietnam Veterans because i could have easily been there myself, had I not enlisted Navy and been otherwise assigned.

I am reading a series of two books by Gary Linderer entitled Phantom Warriors, books 1 and 2. I am well into book two now, and am daily amazed at the bravery and heroism exhibited by the Rangers, LRP and LRRP units. The "Lerps" were awesome individuals who volunteered for harrowing and life threatening duty. My hat's off to them all.


May God bless America and those who defend her.
