I still get a lump in my throat when I hear Johnny Cash Do This Ragged Old Flag. Perhaps one of the best patorite poms/songs period...... Tedd

 

Have a safe and happy memorial day weeks end one and all

Thank YOU veterans that are still with us
The ones that gave all
Are what this is about

 

Fifty years later (after my first support missions) & it still fits. Thank you to everyone in all branches (civil & military) who committed time to protect the freedoms we guarantee to everyone in our country, esp. our POW & MIA. You will never be forgotten.

 

Do the pants fit too? Mine don't.......

 

They did for awhile - I had like 3 or 4 pairs. Over the years I elected to use them for various projects and they were eventually destroyed. I got my money's worth.
