Title: This is my boot.....
Post by Jonny on Mar 29th, 2005, 8:26pm
.......of rememberence.

We all have busy lives and shit just passes by.....it does not for the men and women who are fighting for us and freedom (ask Ree)

I got a call from a SGT tonite that had already returned to the states when my care package arrived in Iraq (I dont even know this guy) and he told me that it went to a dude that had just arrived there, he apologized for taking so long to call but who am I to blame him for that.

Sorry in advance for all the dial uppers (this is huge) but we must NEVER FORGET!!

We will never, must never, can never forget. And we must take steps to prevent this senseless slaughter from ever, ever happening again.

God bless our troops. God bless our nation. God bless our world.

Spent the day in an emergency response tabletop exercise trying to improve public health response. kinda like trying to herd chickens  :)

I looked at this post this morning at 5:30 central time. I was up visiting with my wife (we both work ambulance)She was getting ready for work. Sat down beside me and watched the entire thing. It brought a tear to both of our eyes. I love my country, I love my bros who are in the middle of the shit right now, I wish I was with them. The main problem with this country right now is that they swore they would never forget and most have. Most have forgoten how they sat or stood in front of the tv glued to it waiting and praying. All wanting to kick someones ass. Well we are kicking someones ass and now they are pissing and moaning about it. They all need to watch this clip and remember what our country had placed upon our shoulders. This is the first time I have been back on line after watching the clip. Now I am going to take it and post it on some of the other boards that I visit and let them remember and email the link to my freinds. Then I will crawl back into my hole.

To all my bros
SEMPER FI
I will never forget

Nicely done too.

I've been around a long time and a news junkie. I've never seen anything like this, especially over here.

I've said it before, they hit the wrong city. Dumbth.

I could not believe what I was seeing on the tv that day.It is a day that no-one will ever forget, but we need a boot at times to remind us of how many innocent people lost their lives.
We all pray for an end to the war on terror.

Yes God bless em all... might not be what they thought they were signing up for but the are all doin us proud... With a heavy heart I said goodbye to my son Sean again... I bought a new flag when I was in LeJeune to replace the one that I put up from Quantico after the WTC tragedy  happened on 9/11/01.  Its waving outside my house and will until it fades enough to be replaced. I thought I would start this recent deployment with a flag from Seans base.  
I just want to say thanks for keeping the men and women high on your prayer lists...... you guys are great... thanks jonny for the thread... I know I will never forget......   I have the wrinkles and greys to prove it... ree http://www.kearsarge.navy.mil/main.jpg My son is in there somewhere!!! God Speed Seanny!
