Day 11: Today I am so very thankful to all the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice to ensure all of us stay safe and free! I am so very thankful to my Uncle Dave who gave a full year of his life fighting in the Vietnam War. None of us could ever imagine what these men and women have seen and done....all for the sake if our freedom!! Thank You all for all you do and have done. You all are true Hero's!!!
