We always shake hands and thank veterans when we travel. This week, I did this with a man that I met in Dexter Missouri. He told me that he was proud that the young veterans today are getting respect. When he came back from Vietnam, he was spat on. It made me sad and physical sick to think of what our young men went through for serving their country. I told him that our young men and women deserve respect today , but so did the soldiers of his generation. I thanked him again for what he did.........Remember.
We have gone through 6- 8 states this trip and I have been delighted to see how many small towns are putting their flags out to honor our troops and fallen troops. It makes me proud to be an American....Remember.
