This year it has been necessary to focus on customer development. That coupled with my desire to participate with Patriot Guard rides, has left no time to keep this group current. I would like to know if anyone is interested in being a co-leader? If anyone has the time or an interest let me know.

First of all thanks Mark for inviting me to the group. Many thanks also to you for all you do for our service people.

I have been so busy this week I must apologize for not posting events in a timely manor. I hope to catch up this week. Mark

A veteran - whether active duty, retired, or reserve- is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The Government of the United States of America' for an amount of 'up to and including my life'. . . and military wives are as much veterans as their spouses. From one Veteran to another, it's an honor to be in your company.

Groundrat, I just want to thank you for all you and your buddies do to welcome home the guys. Could you give a shout out to them and tell them THANK YOU and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Thank you for having such a warm and thoughtful group created for (the families &) our serviceman .. Especially during this festive (but challenging) times. The guys & gals who are proudly wearing the military uniforms do need all the cheers and encouragements from ALL of us today and always
