Fred, great video, I just emailed it to everyone in my address book. And I didn't thank you yesterday, so today I tell you thank you. I appreciate your service. You know my Papa wanted to join the Army during World War II and the Army would not accept a young man with a glass eye. His father was a rather wealthy and important doctor that worked for the Georgia state mental hospital and he paid his son's way in to the Army. My grandfather only served stateside and the only thing he shot was a camera also. He took many pictures at the White House and my mother was actually born in D.C. at George Washington hospital. I really appreciate your service. THANK YOU AGAIN.
That is a great story Tammy. You should be proud of your Grandfather for his persistance. You are very welcome.
Fred, Thank God we learned from our mistakes. Our son just got out of the Army after serving almost 5 years (he was supposed to be in 4 years but got the stop lost) and when he traveled in uniform he was constantly stopped by people thanking him for his service. That is what our Vietnam Vets did not receive so THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!!
Fred - I doesn't matter if you were a reporter or a gunnery seargent, you served. Thanks man! Good to see you posting again.
I had no idea that you had served, so let me also say "Thank You" for my freedom as well as many others that have now come to our country to live the American dream because of you.
would like to personally thank you as well for your service, Fred. We need more people like you in the mortgage business as well! =0)

Marchel - I agree and I am certainly happy that your son was treated as he deserved.
Greg - You would be surprised how fast I could make that typewriter fire. LOL
Todd & Chris - You are very welcome. Both of your are very positive influences in your communities, keep it up.
Public perception of Vietnam vets certainly has changed over the years, as I remember it all too well. I'll be thinking of you, Fred, when I'm in Saigon next week. We are all honored that you served your country.
Thank you Fred for your dedicated service to our country !
I hope you enjoyed the fruits of your labor with a fabulous Holiday Season with your family :o)
Cheers !
