I received this picture from Cathy today...her and the children went to the local veteran cemetary in Pineville, LA to assist in placing flags on all the graves of our country's finest. Proud doesn't begin to define my feelings.

Their mother uses events such as this to remind them of the sacrifice not only we make as an active duty family, but also that other's have sacrificed much more then we ever have!

The men and women who have served this great country to protect our freedom have honored us all.  I greatly appreciate their sacrifices and humbled to know that so many have given their lives.  I pray that you all have a blessed Memorial day and safe rides home.  Your mission to the wall in invaluable and I appreciate all that you do and have done to ride for those who can not.
Thank you all for your Service and Defense of our Home. Safe Riding and God Bless!!

thank you Sixshooter... Happy Memorial day
Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation. Thanks SheWolf
