One is in the Air Force as an E-3, the other is in the Guard (I believe) and the other looks like he doesn't have much.
The scenario I'm really hoping for is:
Some rich guy seeks them out, anonomously, and sends them each a check to show appreciation (beyond the mayor giving them the key to the city).
I'm not looking to create some sort of mercenary program, where there's an on-line menu of Good Works with corresponding payout.
Now I need my head massaged HotD (from all this thinking and writing) and I'd bet you're very good (and bad) when you want to be.
I'm willing to bet none of them would accept the money if it was offered.
