Armed Forces Day

[Botafogo]

Carl, I spent four years in the Army, most of it at 1st Armored Division Headquarters in Ansbach, Germany during the height of the cold war. My father fought in Korea and I lost two uncles and several cousins in Nam (which caused my grandmother to take a bus to DC and spend a week screaming at LBJ from the front of the White House).

So, if you think I am a pinko peace-nic with no time in grade you are wrong.

BUT, cheers to all of you Vets or not...
