ridin with our local pgr in the vets day parade again
this year ridin thumperclone with a 3X5 flag
hopefully i wont have to be part of the security detail as in prior years.. would really like to see the parade!!!

We have a day of rememberance in England ,were everyone buys a  poppy, the money goes to help veterans of all wars and service,
complete with hostel type living quarteres ,and of course free medical for all,that is All people,not just vets ,the only vets who live on the street are their because they want to be.
So what goes on here at all these parades ? last week on 60 minutes they showed thousands of vets living on the streets, they had a 3 day camp for these guys ,they could get cleaned up,shaves ,haircuts,and some free clothing, but no medical help other than camping out at a vet hospital ,you may or may not get seen.
When I was in we Brits were so enviuse of your uniforms,nice soft gaberdine, and field jackets to die for, I have one now and love it.
You take great care of your military while they are in but................

Hey Mick -

Isn't it our friend Bill in Wisconsin who gets all of his medical services at the VA, and is happy with it?

As for the cop who gave piglt that ticket - he should be ashamed.
