Thank you for your service Chris. I realize it has cost you more than we can fathom.

Thank you! I'm sure he saw that and will personally thank you when we all go up there and "re group"

No problem. I feel like I owe it to them, you know. They have done so much for us. Sorry for the ignorance but Chris I am guessing that you were in the army too?

Agreed. We know the risks but wouldn't have it any other way. Someone has got to be down range
