Said between the wool and the cold, he couldn'ttake it anymore. He volunteered for Nam so he could get out of it.
Combat was better than freezing to death in a wool blanket.

Wow! Thanks for the picture, it's incredible! Even in the bitterest frost, our flag has stood and will stand! I can't even imagine what it would look like to hang a solar flag pole light on it in this frozen state. Just to look at this picture at night. Pure fairy tale, and how the ice would give off its reflections into the already beautiful flag. I will show this picture to the whole family, and most likely print it out to hang above my workplace. The photo helps me think that if the flag stands, our people will stand all the more so forever!Last edited by AmyJUW; 07-27-2021, 06:54 AM.

Being 45 years old and not coming from a military family, growing up I knew I was blessed to live here but as I have gotten older I clearly have a better understanding of the sacrifices that were made for me to live free day to day. I'm truly thankful for all men and women that have served to protect my freedom and the American Flag!!! I just hope with everything going on in the county today that when push comes to shove enough patriots stand up to defend Old Glory. That is one gorgeous flag!!!!!
