I wasn't sure exactly which section to put this under however. Decided to put it here because it is good for the spirit to recognize those who have given so much.

Thanks Keith for the great post. My nephew Cameron Whelan is a great story deserving of mention on this day. I'm proud of him. He recently received the
Bronze Star. He volunteered for combat in Afghanistan when the war first started. He served his 4 years, was in combat, and got out with an honorable
discharge. THEN HE SAID HE "MISSED IT" SO HE RE-ENLISTED to go back and was sent to Iraq a few years ago when it looked bleak and was at its worst
over there. He saw combat again there too! He is now in the reserves. He is one crazy, patriotic and brave mfer! I know we hear alot about the greatest
generation, and I agree with it. But not all kids today are bad either. There are a lot of great & brave great kids today who risk or give their lives for
us every day and they VOLUNTEERED TO DO IT! If you see a serviceman in uniform at the airport or anywhere, say THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE to them.
