2024 Veterans giveaway Signup. Thank You For Your Service

no Canadian Veterans on this site?
I come from a family with a pretty rich military and war history
My great grandfather survived Paschendale , barely. He lost a leg and and an arm but he made it thru. All my great uncles served as did my grandfathers and were in the thick of it. I recently asked my mom to put together what she could of our family;s military history before she passes on… She is a geneologist and does family history and searches for people. Going way back on my dad;s side I come from warrior blood of the Cree Nation, descending from Chief Little Hunter who fought the crown in the great rebellions.
Much respect to all of you who served. I see some of you where serving when i was still in diapers. Good to have you ol boys with us still.
Lest We Forget.

So now I can request genetics from “donar” ? Remember when coming home - once home a few folks “spit” in my face ( war protesters) - Guess that was the thanks for serving our country !!! Recently here in the US , seems many people don’t value of being a US citizen - all ways protesting about something being right or wrong - this comes with freedom !!! We all need to come together - Peace (disabled vet)

I bought this shirt from a friend of mine from Washington that used to come up and shoot the M14 rifles (variants)with us. He is a retired nuclear submariner.
On the back it has a large POW MIA insignia.
I wear this shirt quite a bit when i’m feeling in the mood to express myself hehehe

When i got home from Iraq and hit dirt near FT Polk they bussed us back from Alexandria i think?Anyway the bus was going as fast as it could escorted by a sherrif in the rear and a full patriot guard escort on point.The Westboro Church was trying to get at us so they pretty much had us surrounded by Patriot guard and Cops in the back.The Guard lined up In alexandria and formed a Shield wall around us as they threw full water bottles of piss and Screamed Obscenities as .There was a scuffle and those assholes got bent into a pretzle and the cops pretty much paitently waited till the stomping was over and took them out of there.I guess things dont change much

Nothing comes for free in this world, someone always pays the freight somewhere along the line. Folks would do well the think about that from time to time.

Hey there OG. So we have a bit of a development. We have a new user that goes by the name of @Golfnutt who has offered up a prize for one of the lucky Veterans here. He has offered up a 4 x 4 x 80 AC infinity cloud lab tent with the extra mounting frame for the interior. These are new and still in the unopened boxes. He was brought to the site by @JustANobody and wants to participate in the event. He will be handling the shipping of this prize to the lucky winner. So what I am going to do is put up a signup here. Anyone interested in this prize please sign up here and I will do a random number draw for the prize. The winner will provide their address to @Golfnutt and he will ship directly to the winner. USA only and it’s only open to Veterans. Good luck everyone and thanks for offering up this amazing prize @Golfnutt.

Just trying to keep the wife from having me sleeping outside in one lol. I’ve taken over both of our kids rooms since they’re grown and moved out as well as a spare bathroom. One more tent just might be the straw that breaks this camels back.
