A day that will live in infamy... - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

I kinda feel bad that I didn't post this until late in the day, but I'd feel worse if I didn't point out the date and the historical impact at all. I think we all know what Dec. 7th means, and I really want to take the time to thank all of those who serve now in our armed forces, or have served.

I especially want to especially thank those who served in WWII. I try to make a point of thanking any of those brave souls who did when I see them either in the store I work in or on the street. Most will wear a cap or something to indicate their service, and they more than deserve to wear those items with great pride, as do any of our vets of all conflicts they were involved in.

Thank you all. God bless you for what you've done and what you represent. You are appreciated.

I remembered just a few hours ago what today was because I just happened to look at the date on my cell phone. I had my moment of silence then...

I lose sight of what our soldiers do for us on a daily basis and when I'm reminded of what they give and how they give it I feel terrible for forgetting it.

Sorry boys, yall deserve all of our respect

I agree and thanx for posting it up. There certain times and dates that none of us can afford to forget and this is one of them.

+1 man, I think about it each and every year when 12-7 rolls in. Saw my wifes grandfather just tonight, he is a WW2 vet, pacific theater. He is suffering from Alzheimers now and not really aware of much, but I call him sir every time I see him. I look up to all who have served, but for some reason I hold those men from WW2 in the highest of the highest regard....God bless and thank you!!

They have been named the Greatest Generation, I concur! They are passing away at a rate of 1,000 a day, what a sobering thought. God bless you all!

Indeed.

This day depresses me more and more each year. I used to call my grandfather every year and talk to him for a bit about the war. It'll be 4 years next year that I lost him, and I miss him still
