God Bless On Memorial Day

From Track Side with Melli & Other Stuff

I want to take a moment to say "Thank You" to all our men and women in our armed forces now and those that have given their lives for all of us and the Freedoms we all have because of their ultimate sacrifice.

My father served in WW11 on the USS Radford and served proudly during one of the bloodiest battles in the South Pacific. Dad shares almost on a daily basis and he's now 91, what he experienced as a young man fighting in a very mean, ugly war. We as Americans must NOT forget what they did for us and died for our freedom.

Take the time if you see a young man or women in uniform to say "Thank You" and shake there hand.

I will always be grateful to dad and all those who have preceded him in defending this precious country we call The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA yeahhhh I'm so damn proud to be AMERICAN oh yes I am.

Ciao for now and have a wonderful weekend
