*love*

Respect and gratitude to LC, and to all the men and women who've died in service to our country.

A salute to LC and all members of the thin blue line and thin green line.

I miss her.

Lady Cop will never be forgotten!











(1) (Good man, Maggot)

I could depend on that poem being posted by her on memorial day as sure as the sun rises everyday. I could not let the day go by without it.

Thank you, Maggot!

Thanks to all our service men/women.

I don't know what's wrong with me but I'm in the mood for mushy/touching videos today.

I just found this and I figured it might fit here. It's mostly war dogs but also rescued dogs.

Stop it User. Stop it right now.

My father was an airman in WW2 flying bombing missions out of Great Briton over Germany. In his final mission he was filled with the anticipation of returning stateside to be reunited with his family. On that mission he was shot down and taken as a P.O.W. He was in the Nuremberg/Moosburg Luft III camp for the duration of the war. Upon his liberation he and a group of his buddies (about 100 of the 10,000 POWs) tore down the Nazi flag and erected the Stars and Stripes proudly in its place. They signed their names on that flag to commemorate their service and celebrate their freedom. It is proudly displayed in a Museum back here in the Good Ole USA as a fitting tribute to the service men who came home and those who did not. I Thank You all for your Sacrifice.



p.s. Miss you Lady Cop

A BIG Thank You to all the servicemen/women that are so Brave as to Fight for our freedom. Happy Memorial Day.

LC~ She will forever be missed. RIP

It bothers me that out of approximately 18 houses on our cul-de-sac, only 3 of us have flags up.

User, That's approximately the same percentage that show up to vote. War vets see the same evidence that you notice and have learned to keep their service experiences to themselves. They know most people don't want to hear about it.

Every day is Memorial Day.

Or at least it is for me.

We have about the same amount of houses on our cul-de-sac. Only one house did not put a flag up, guess who.

Shame on you!

I know me and LC never saw eye to eye but she meant a lot to you guys and this forum, so I miss here on the behalf of you guys and the impact she had on the folks I have grown to enjoy(you guys)

RIP Lady Cop

Zero, how long was your father a p.o.w?
