I just met Raymond while waiting for a pizza at Domino’s. He’s an older fellow and quite unsteady. He sat down next to me and told me he is going in for back surgery tomorrow. They are replacing 5 vertebrae in his spine. Raymond was in the Navy for 18 years. He served during the Korean War. He related an incident in which he narrowly escaped capture during which he laid in the ice and snow for a fairly long time which has resulted in his spine being very brittle. Anyway chances are I will never see him again but for those of you who do, please offer a prayer for a successful surgery and Gods blessings upon him.

So true D. Too many don't have a clue brother 👍


I believe many do not want a clue. It does not involve them personally.

Mike,
I attend church with a Korean Conflict vet. His stories are breathtaking. When off duty it was so cold the guys slept two to a sleeping bag just to get warm.

My heart went out to him. They endured real horrors. All of you men and women who have endured combat for our sakes have my undying gratitude and support. I truly love all of you!!!
