OUR VIEW OF THOSE WHO SERVE IN OUR NATION’S



OUR VIEW OF THOSE WHO
SERVE IN OUR NATION’S
ARMED FORCES: 

We believe when an individual, man
or woman, raises his right hand to take the formal oath of allegiance to The United States of America and to serve faithfully in any branch of our armed forces that the individual doing so is also in essence signing a blank check payable to America and to her citizens. 

This individual agrees to go where he
is told to go, to learn what she needs
to learn, to become proficient enough
to then teach others how to get the job done, and then, if necessary, these men and women go once more to the places they are told to go. 
These special people go to the
places ordinary citizens would not wish to go.  Once there, they do their duty.  They get the job done. 

Often these men and women are placed in harm’s way, serving in
places with  strange sounding names they risk their lives for their
comrades, for their country and for American ideals. 

This is the way it has always been.  This is the way it will always be.  We view these men and women as truly representing the very best of we Americans. 

They have earned our respect, they have earned the honors bestowed upon them, and they have earned our continued support  once they return from those strange sounding places where often times their lives have been changed forever.
