Here's the plate on my 72 Bronco. Thanks, y'all. My kids painted the flags on the doors after 9/11 as a thanks to the servicemen keeping us safe.

Here's a poem my daughter, Erica, wrote for the same reason (at age 12).
It's called "GI Joe":
‘I’m just an average person.’
That’s what average people say.
‘I can’t make a difference.’
So they go on with their day
But you my friend are different.
You’re not an ordinary Joe.
You go into war for people
You barely even know.
You keep our families safe.
You’re a hero to us all.
We know if we’re in trouble,
You will always answer our call.
I know this card is little
And I don’t have much to say,
But I hope it will keep you going
For at least one more day.
Thank you for protecting us,
For being ready for us to send.
Thank you for being the one
Who I can trust to the end.
4 years active duty - Navy. Was stationed in Keyport Washington and did TAD to Naniamo BC every 3 months, for 3 months testing torpedos. I loved it. Met my wife on the island.
That's me flying. Loved "Fred". Took it to the desert and back more times then I can remember.
Guard Baby. 1998 to present. Active Duty in the Guard fighting the war since 2000 (I know war didn't kick off till 01, but I was in pilot trng for the year prior). Civilian life is on hold.
New assignment now (ok to talk about what you did, not what you are doing), still in the Guard, still flying, still fighting.

My TRD FJ is avaiable for well established and reputable aftermarket manufacturers to send free parts to and have them installed for me and thus receive free advertising!! (My part will be to enjoy showing it off.) You business could be the first. Don't miss out on this 1 in 3200 oppurtunity.
