Puck, under the heading of "you had to be there".......
Please keep the Strawberry Hill away from me, but I'll raise a glass to absent friends.
A glass of Jack for LTC James, SFC Howe, and MSG Tuliau. LTC James was a commander to the end, waited until his soldiers had been laid to rest before he passed himself.
I'll raise an Irish to Spc. Akintade, didn't know you long, but you were a hell of a soldier.
There are many, many more, but I'll stop there.
The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.
No official drinks for Jim, a vet of 2 tours in Viet Nam, a father of 3, a good boss, and a friend. Rest in peace you old ba$tard.
A toast of good Bourbon Whiskey for my Daddy; he's a retired Lt.Commander in the Navy, a Veteran of the Korean War, and WWII. He's still going strong at a young 84 and living the good life in Florida! Thanks, Daddy!
I'd also like to send a thank you and raise a glass to all current and past soldiers in honor of Veterans Day - thank you all!
GO RAVENS!!

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power
To know just when the hands will stop - on what day, or what hour.
Now is the only time you have, so live it with a will -
Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.

In Memory of Dad~
Retired Lieutenant Colonel, US Army Corps of Engineers, Pacific Islands, WW II ...
Dad and his Engineers began building Air Strips on the Pacific Islands before all
the enemy fighters had been cleared ... they rode their dozers and graders with
their weapons beside the seats.
