My thanks to all you vets as well.

I'm proud and honored to help design and build the machines that get you into and out of the action.

It's great to have a Holiday set aside for those who have protected the USA in the times from Lexington to Iraq, but for me Independence Day is as important as Memorial Day as a time to remember those who have bought and paid for our freedom ...

Memorial Day is not my day. My day, as much as any, is November 11th.

Memorial Day is for those who have gone before and made the ultimate sacrifice.
And for that I will always honor them.

THANK YOU to all you who have served and are currently servicing our nation past and present. We owe a great amount debt and gratitude to you all for your service and sacrifice.

My father served in the South Pacific. My uncle (my father's brother) was killed at Normandy. I hope to one day go over and see his grave at the cemetary.

Heroism is an ordinary, scared individual...unselfishly doing something extraordinary...while they're still scared.
