I am sitting her listening to my nephew whistling for the first time. He is overwhelmed with joy, and so am I.

As I look at him I realize why I served my country. Freedom is not free, and because of the millions of veterans, and current service men we have that freedom, and my nephew does too.

I am on vacation. I am in Sun River, Oregon. It is a fabulous vacation spot. Something for everyone, and lots of sun.

As I look out the window, I can see deer grazing. I can see people riding bikes. It makes me feel good to see so many beautiful animals, and people enjoying themselves.

BTW… there is a 150 pound German Shepard dog waiting for anyone who is brave enough to try to break in to our home.. He will chew you up.

I was walking in a mall the other day. I had my army hat on. A young man stopped me and said thank you to me. That certainly made my day. We need to be thanking all service men and women when we see them. It will make their day, and make you smile.

Here is another plug for all of you brothers and sisters who are attempting to get compensation from the military. My thought is NEVER GIVE UP!

The military seems to automatically turn you down the first time you apply. Keep trying and keep going back to push farther.

I know of a guy that never gave up. He was turned down many times, and he persevered. He earned full compensation.
