| Immunes | Post; Hello everyoneHi, I am new to this forum. I've been lurking for awhile, because I love reading all of the quotes. Alittle background on myself: I am not in the military but my fiance is. He is in the National Guard. I am also a volunteer at the USO in St. Louis, so who knows, maybe we have already met.

| Immunes | Thanks Doody. It always humbles me when service members thank me. Believe me, it is the least I can do for the military. |
