Many loving hugs and well intended kisses for our armed forces.

I am happy I have met and helped so many of you! I promise to do my duty to continue to support you the best I can if you can promise to continue loving the job you do.

Yes, I will say it. If you do not love your job, I suggest you get out while you can.

Sadly, a good few of the soldiers I have helped are miserable and regretting joining. I am doing the best I can to keep your morales up, because I have been doing my research and have had some close encounters myself in my quest.

Sadly, according to Pentagon statistics, from 1980 to 2002 4,969 U.S. servicemembers killed themselves.

As a cause of death for military personnel, suicide ranked behind accidents (20,609 from 1980 to 2002) and illness (6,436 from 1980 to 2002).

But there were more suicides than deaths from hostile action, terrorist attack, homicide or undetermined causes put together over the 22-year period.

From 1980 to 2003, the overall military suicide rate ranged from a high of 15 per 100,000 in 1995 to a low of 7.7 per 100,000 in 2002.

That compares to an overall U.S. suicide rate of 10.8 per 100,000 in 2001, according to the National Center for Vital Statistics.


Please, I/we love you and want you to come home safely.

My prayers go out strongly for those who think that taking one's own life is the final answer.

Bear with it, sweethearts. We love you and want you to come home SAFE and SOUND.

May God Bless the Big Red One. I fought alongside them in Desert Storm. They kicked A$$, and took names. I really liked the Soldier near the end of the clip that said "It's time to make babies". Well, Bud, yes it is.

ATTN: Joe and Jane Q. Public - Have any bad feelings about what our Government is doing? Thank YOUR military for giving you the Right to gripe without fear of Death. Don't HATE the Soldiers, HATE the Politicians that put them there. I served for 9 years- in peace, and in War. I am personally AGAINST them being there myself, I wish they all came home. BUT, I would rather have a grenade shoved up my pooper than to dis any man or woman in uniform from America. As the Marines say- SEMPER FIDELIS - ALWAYS FAITHFUL !!!

I agree with you on this one! I would rather be thrown out a skyscraper than diss the armed forces. (Besides, they could kick my weak ass! )

For all our soldiers whom have fallen, I say this prayer.

I miss the green feilds i grew up with
instead i have the burnin sands all around me
the sound of people talkin but no way to understand them
My buddy to my left and right understand this but unfortionatlly momma and Daddy dont.

I heard of those who came before and i still try to figure out how they did their job. I stood for my country and i am proud no matter what.

I hope i made them proud back home
I hope i did the right thing
I hope i Make it home.
Not Knowin is the worst part
Not Knowin when i might go and if it maybe my last day

I sit here cleanin my gun
when i hear the sirens go off
and the hell begin
i hear the explotions and my buddies callin my name
but i cant feel my legs
the load me on the bird and i fly away
from hell and chaos not knowin whats goin on
the Doc says i have a piece of meatle in my spine
and i wont walk ever again
as i grow old i am forgotten
and i have only those who i served with like in the war
and i die without anyone carin cause im just Uncle Sam's
Forgotten Son

NEVER Forgotten

All too often they are forgotten my friend

I agree never forgotten..... Soldiers are what made this country as free as it is today. (sometimes too free)....

God bless the soldiers and their families...

Their Buddies remember them, at least.. Maybe not by name, but in the minds' eye.

Does anyone remember the last words of the men who took the plane down in Pa on 9-11?

If I remember correctly... "Let's Roll".....

On Flight 93, the last words were "Are you guys ready? Let's roll.", which would later become the war cry for those fighting Al Qaeda in Afghanistan.

At least i aint the only one who remember....there are those who forget and lets not let that happen any more

Honey, I still cry uncontrollably every September 11th. I will never forget. I can not work on that day because the emotions are still so overwhelming.

It can never be said enough, THANK YOU TO ALL MILITARY FOR ALL YOU ARE GIVING UP TO FIGHT But please do remember our police men and women, firefighters, and ems workers as well. They risk a lot as well .

SO TO ALL THOSE THAT PUT THEIR LIVES IN HARMS WAY FOR ME, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

please never forget. we lost alot that day and we can never get them back

I can't fathom the fact that it's been almost seven years ago..
And we still haven't caught that Wascally Wabbit.
I say send rednecks with high-powered rifles and coon dogs out after him. They'll have him treed... er, caved up in no time..

Never Ever Forgotten ....

Hugs & Love to Both of You

Brave & Awesome Men Sully & Will


I am thankful that i even get to be in your midst

Gratefulness to those living & to those who have passed on
