I’d like to extend my thanks to all those who serve and have served in the armed forces.  I may not agree with the government on all points, but the individuals who serve our country deserve a great deal more than simple respect.  My servicemen, past and present:

• Bernard H. Wright, Sr. - US Navy
• Lyman C. Peck - US Air Force
• Chester Whitt - US Army
• Mark Petitte - US Navy
• John Snider - US Air Force
• Bob Duncan - US Marines
• Daniel Sherman - US Air Force
• Jonathan Sherman - US Air Force
• Michael Ward - US Army
• David Lee - US Marines 
• David Whitt - US Army
• Steven Whitt - US Air Force (currently serving in Iraq)

So, for those I know personally and those I don’t:  Thank you.  We owe you more than we know.  You have my appreciation.
