...and have fought, and continue to fight for my freedom.
In honor of Veteran's day, below are some pics of my dad, who is now 65, from his days in the Army. I don't think he even knows I have these pics. When I visited my Grandma in Puerto Rico a few years ago, she gave them to me. He doesn't like to talk about his time in Vietnam, but his two missing fingers from his left hand remind me everyday of how brave he was. He is truly my hero.

I'd like to say thanks to all those brave men and women too. My dad was career army, so I'm fortunate enough to know many wonderful veterans. Thank you all for the sacrifices you and your families make every day.:flowerforyou:0
