Some paid the ultimate price others still struggle with their time in the bush and some of us live knowing how much our brothers in arms gave so that we can grow old and remember their sacrifice.We all did not end up in the jungles to survive in(missed by 1 year).but remember ,there was always some folks (in never never land )that no one really knew about that was out there for when SHTF and it was time to do sometime big. You , brothers have my respects.I bid you peace,MitchSSBN617bluehad brothers in arm backing you up.
I still have a set of khakis and all my ribbons and hardware even the lid but cant wear them, so they must have shrunk and even my DI lid has shrunk lol!!! wouldn't think 35 pounds would make that much difference . David
