Thanks to all our veterans and those currently serving! I was fortunate enough to be on the beaches of Normandy and at the American cemetery there on the 50th anniversary of D-Day. A tremendously humbling experience! Thank you all for preserving my freedom and liberties!

The freedom enjoyed by so many was bought and paid for with a heavy price. Thank you to all those who served and Those serving still. May we never forget those would paid the price.
 
Just wanted to never forget all our best! My flag is up in remembrance and thanks.
peace be with you and your families on this day.
 
Celebrating the life of Chris Robinson today, and remembering all that have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms over the years.

Chris was a great guy. Dedicated family man, and outstanding 18E.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
