    ft. riley 76-77, you have my condolences, 77-78 Ft.Myer Virginia Arlington cemetery armys honor guard and presidential escort.

    My uncle johnny served in nam, got 2 purple hearts, and died decades later of agent orange liver, his first granddaughter was born with terrible spina bifida, his son got 26000 bucks to buy his family a real house.

    my dad turned 18 in Korea, got off the chosin reservoir by two vehicles, pretty much the rest froze to death. he spent 14 months in a va hospital before being turned out on the streets.

    Grandpa served, WWII.

    Before that its a little foggy for ours.

    We are a family.

    Family-wise, my side. "Alexander" American Revolution, Civil War (both sides), WWI & II, Vietnam and the Gulf. Wife and I both were in the USCG during the Gulf but were stationed here. One of my uncles was over there however. Oldest son ROTC (Army), youngest is now a Marine (graduated about a month ago).

    I know a little about my wife's side but I'm sure it pretty much reflects what I know of mine. Interesting little tidbit on her side though. Some of her bloodline comes from the Cherokee who refused, fought, stayed, and were finally recognized in North Carolina.

    I will reiterate, the above statements. Thanks to all who served, continue to serve or have family that do/did. And, yes, lest we forget November 11th...
