Salutes, plaudits, accolades for all the Army has done for America, Americans...not to mention all kinds of countries and peoples around the world.
If one watched CNN and read the NYT all the time, you'd think the Army were nothing but really bad people. Not so! The vast majority have done so very, very much for the rest of us. We, truly, cannot thank them enough.
As I write, many, many soldiers are in harm's way. They are dirty, tired, away from home and putting their lives on the line. Would that all Americans knew how tough it is.
Congratz to Army.
Semper Fidelis,
Old Soldier of the Sea sends

The jeans had been influenced by snowflakes and also appointed by diamonds. When shimmering in the light, the jeans would remind you of the snow flying in winter.
