Worth the time to read this.

BB1

Been a guest of the V.A. Hospital here in Louisville since 1970, For about 20 years most of the brothers I would see were baby boomers like me. Fortunatley I was not wounded like some of the horrific injuries I've seen From the Balboa Naval hosp. in San Diego, the Portsmith Naval Hosp. in VA. to the VA center here in Lou. But around 1990 I again started to see a major increase of young men like deja vue filling the halls of the Hosp. again with tramatic injuries. These are young men that volunteered to risk their lives for you and me. When you close your eyes this evening, say a little pray for these indivduals and for their ther families!

If that doesn't bring a tear to your eye youre not human....glad to see the icons of the sport we love taking time to fish with the real heros

Thanks for the link Tim.

Prayers sent for our soldiers!

Ripping. Thats my father 60 years ago, a veterain of ww2, korea and vietnam wounded once. who suffers from demincia but the army are his memories and he wants to go back in at 84 years old. They are rare. They are dedicated and we don't know how good we got it. Very touching.
