Happy veterans day to all my fellow veterans

Post by S Allen »

May we all give thanks to all the men and women whom have served with many sacrificing with their lives. I thought it would be interesting to list our service.

20 years US Navy Seabees retired Builder Chief Seabee Combat Warfare (SCW)

Anyone else?

Thank you Steve and all other veterans for sacrificing their time, energy, and sometimes their lives to keep the rest of us safe, secure, and enjoying the privileged lives we often take for granted.

Thanks to all that served and gave. 6 years USN - navigation and helmsman CV-66. Steering this boat had a different wiggle than the roadster out of a turn.
