I would like to say thank you to all our Veterans past present and future. I believe we should thank you every day of the year not just on certain days. My Dad and his brothers are all Veterans. I say a prayer everyday for you and your family. May God bless you and keep you safe always. Thank you again and God Bless America

After 24 years of service I have to admit that it is nice to see all the support for us when I attend the different rallies. ROT really goes all out to show their support for us Veterans and have to chime in with Monster and tell everyone thank you. Those of us that serve or have served have done so to ensure all have the freedom to enjoy events like ROT and express themselves as they see fit.
Thank you for your support and friendship.

Really looking forward to meeting you and sharing my experiences. I have been out nearly 11 years and will be glad to share info. I have to admit that I miss the camaraderie and often think of the great times, but do not miss some aspects. You may be surprised to find that the civilian work force (both civilian and civil service) are really no different than the daily grind in the military. Take care of yourself and see you in June. My site is Green E-22

I totally understand where you are coming from, but honestly, would you have said the same thing and used the same size font if Bush was still in office?
Actually wasn't it an American sailor that did the job? ;) On orders from the Prez, and so if the 3 star Admiral can get some of the credit, so can the Prez. ;)
What really sucks is that kid will get a citation that will probably be sealed for 30 years and will never get to talk about it again.
All respect to the men and women that serve, from the cooks and nurses to the ground pounders, fly boys and squids, that is one tough job and they have done everything asked of them.

Yes i would have used the same font no matter who was in office the credit go's to the ones who are doing the job on the ground not the leadership!!!!!!!!!

FIRST OF ALL for anyone who thinks PREZ Obama deserves credit for the capture of O B Ladin, or anyone that agrees with that, I say this **WITH RESPECT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO AN OPPINION** Here is mine: As a 22 year retired, M1A2 TANKER/First Sergeant/CAVALRY PLT Sergeant, Combat Arms Soldiers, Active Duty, 4 Time Deployed Iraq, Bosnia, Kosovo, Hungary and in addition to that 4 tours in Germany totaling 12 years including numerous other installations and deployments. HELL NO!! PREZ Obama should get jack crap! First of all a Commander in Chief who has never even worn the uniform has no, absolutley no, entitlement to take credit for a job done by this fine countries men and woman of the US Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard or Reserves. So hell no! He doesn't deserve crap! No politician in the history of this great country has had any success without the stuggles of our Armed Forces. Politicians who DO serve fall into that category so YES on the other hand PREZ Bush does deserve that recognition, as well as any other politician who has acctually stood a post in defending this country. Other than that, a suit deserves nothing if he or she hasnt given any sacrifice to defend her. What he or she should do, is keep their mouth shut and reach out a hand and knod acknowledging a simple and humble THANK YOU. So, in saying that. CONGRATULATIONS to all my brothers, sisters, in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Hational Guard and Reserve for catching that worthless, terror inflicting sorry excuse of a human being, parasite, wanna be human, careless, indecent unjustified, failure of a man and worthless enemy! And thats all I have to say about that.
