I made it back east to DC for the 24th Rolling Thunder POW/MIA rally with 500,000 of my closest friends. My sniper partners from Nam get together there each year. But this year was special, more than any other. We were able to go with an Army Vet who started his own foundation to provide Friday night dinners to veterans who are confined to either the Bethesda Naval Hospital or Walter Reed. He took us over to visit returning Marines at both facilities. I will never be the same again. The spirit and courage of these young men we visited is amazing. We met the young men in this video and they are amazing to say the least. The next time you want to complain think about these young men. The white guy, Tyler Southern is getting married in July. Met his fiance' and she is a wonderful young woman. Will write more later but had to share some of the spirit of these young warriors.
