i guess thats still up in the air, but i must say that the last generation of warriors that we sent to battle did a great job and made our nation proud.

We cant take anything away from a man or woman who stands up to fight to protect our way of life.....from the revolutionary war, to fighting isis and radical fundalmentalists right here on our own soil!! God bless the red, white and blue, and r.i.p. To every single person who died in the defense of this great nation!!
