...I boarded a Flying Tigers Charter Jet in Cam Rahn Bay, South Vietnam to return home after 14 months and 3 days in Vietnam (I extended my tour 2 months to get an early out).
Yesterday was Veterans Day but today is a little more special for me.
May God bless those (and their families) less fortunate than me who were either killed or badly wounded.

Enjoy your day.... you have earned it
Thank you!
Thank you for your service @AndersonDawg The last three days must have felt like three weeks.
As a young Boy, I remember seeing the excitement of family friend Colonel Tom Moe returning home on National TV after having been a POW for over five years. He also served in Desert Shield.

Bless you @AndersonDawg.
Sincerest thanks for your service. We have the freedom to be passionate about a game because men like you sacrificed so much (some everything) to protect us from tyranny.
Thanks for your service AndersonDawg. During the half time tribute at this past missouri game, I was mentioning to my wife - 'I hope these guys (and gals) that have served are as proud of themselves as we are of them.' Thanks, and be proud.
Bravo! Well done! Thanks.
