Any vets among the Audiophiles here?

With the anniversary of D-Day, and Flag day taking place recently there has been a lot of thought given to the people who fought and in many cases died to our freedom. I don't just mean in the US.

Keeping those things in mind I was wondering if we have any vets here. I know Slappy was in the service, and look what it did to him!!!: ) I don't know if you want to mention it here, but I want to take a moment to thank you for the service you provided to your country.

All of the freedoms we have including the chance to simply sit around and listen to music was won for all of us.

Thank You!

I joined the NAVY (or I meant tried to) in late 80's but got cut-off after ASVAB? for medical reasons, I guess they were right, at the time I was in what I thought was perfect health, now I am 100% dis-abled. anyway.......

GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR ROLE BIG OR SMALL!!!!!!!

US Army 70-74. First time to VN was with the 11th Cav. about 60 miles north of Saigon. Second trip was with Co P Rangers working out of Quan Tri. I was also stationed in Ft. Knox (Basic, AIT, and NCO schools), Ft. Riley (1/4 Air Cav. & 1st Inf. Div. honor guard), Ft. Benning (Ranger School), and Ft. Lewis (3/5 Cav.). In total, 3 years, 9 months and 16 days, but who was counting.

I try to keep nothing but good thoughts for the men and women doing the job now, while trying to hide my contempt for the pricks that put them there.
