    I would like to express my gratitude and thanks to all the Men and Women who have served and are now serving in
    our military. Who have given their service to protect us and our country.
    Thanks, Scott Trosper

      From the US Air Force! Here's to all those that died in the service of our country.

      Sorry, I don't think we ever had a motto! It use to be "Aim High" and now "Fly, Fight and Win" I think. None of that really seems to cut it.

        I'm an old Air Force guy too, but I feel that the Marine's Motto, "Semper Fi", "Always Faithful",
        pretty much sums it up for all of us vets, past, present and future! God bless all of us!

        Always faithful to the USA and all she stands for!

        Proud Vietnam Vet! Cam Rahn Bay Air Base, class of "69!!

            Huh, I wear a departed Vietnam Vet's Bellforte self winding watch inscribed with Nha Trang, Cam Rahn Bay and Phu Bai 1968. He must have booked your same travel agent! His family sold the watch because it was not electronic. It has been keeping perfect time since about 1970.

              I've had several but the two I most like are "Strike Swiftly" (which says it all really) and "Tenax in Fedi" (Steadfast in Faith).

                Ah, yes!! The "Uncle Sam Travel Agency"!!
                Our motto:" Boldly sending you anywhere but where you want to be"!! (LOL)
                At least the airfare was "somewhat reasonable", AND, free baggage check!! Such a deal!

                Unfortunately for too many of us, the government saved on return airfares.

                My heartfelt thanks to all of my fellow veterans and their families, here, there or in the "big canteen in the sky".
                God bless.
