Best wishes Marine and thank you for serving! It is heartening to me to know that the greatest show on earth will go on without us.
Thank you for your service!
Congrats on making it to 76! You've already lived an extremely long life and outlived many many many people, and that's despite cancer!
What a badass!
This isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of a new journey. Wishing you all the best in the days ahead.
Thank You for your service Financeman22 and for all the hobbying information you shared the past 10+ years.
Semper Fi!

Thank You for your contributions and best of luck in the future!
I hope your contributions to this board will be an example to other members. Good luck.
Best of luck to you. I watched my uncle suffer and die from Agent Orange induced medical issues. It was hard to watch. Thank you for your service to our country.
I registered for the draft near the end of the war and went to the last major war protest in Washington, wasn't called to serve but still respected those who did.
Saddest memories of that era were witnessing the funerals of two young men in the 18-19 years old age range who became cannon fodder for the failed policies of several administrations and seeing a cousin's health deteriorate because of exposure to Agent Orange.
Thank you for your service to the country and the board and living a long and productive life despite the challenges you faced.
Thanks to all who commented!!
