I have to say that one of the few real regrets I have in life is not serving. Thank you to all that did.

I have spent the last 20+ years in the Navy.

Today I am remembering all those that did not make it home.

Been in the Army (Infantry) for the last 12 years. Loved every minute of it. Leaving in June back to Iraq for my 4th Deployment.

Went and did a Vietnam Vet ride this morning ending up at the traveling Wall. Alot of Vietnam vets there went and shook every one of there hands and thanked them.

For those of you who do not know about this website.

http://www.togetherweserved.com/

Go there, register, find old friends you served with or went to schools with. You never know who will be there. It's a great place to lurk when you have a chance.

If you do decide to register do me a favor. Would list my reference number 92421 in the box for "How did you hear about this site?"

It's a free website, but when you invite others you get additional services for free. I am using them to recreate two KIA profiles of Vietnam Vets who were family.

Congrats to you retirees. I'm jealous.
If I'd stayed in, I'd still be in Leavenworth. : )

I wouldn't change a thing.
