please post pictures of people you know past and present that have gave their time to protect our freedom, or if you are a vet post pictures of yourself or stuff from over seas.

 

I like the idea...

My dad, been in for about 28 yrs.

Horrible picture, but my bro and sis-in-law... I think she had 8 and he is at about 6.

 

Back row, in the middle during a funeral in which I was the folder on a 2 man flag fold(not easy what so ever, family watchin and you dont want to have to unfold and refold. I was 5/5 no failing for me.) as well as a rifleman and pall bearer. All photos below are during my first and second Iraq deployments (Oct 2006-Jan 2008, Jan 2009-Jan 2010)

 

My best friend:

2yrs into National Gaurd - Calvary Scout. I have many friends in the service but i got a bike because of this kid. We used to sit on the rockets at the dealerships when we were sixteen going man one day we gotta get these..... four years later on matching black '05 rr's

 

Too long ago, too many good friends gone..................
For my friend Tim, and all other Vets out there.

 

this is the coolest cover ever on my ironworker mag. If any body knows about this guard of the tomb , the story is unreal, the guard (s) never leave this unattended , their uniform is perfect , and they take an oath not to drink or cuss, they take a 21 pace march in front of the tomb. And to all the VETERANS and armed personel , i thank you for your service and just know that there are those of us out there that hold the highest amount of respect for your service to our country. My family and i thank you.

 

I've been there and seen the changing of the guard. It is ridiculous how dedicated and meticulous the whole thing is.

 

Ive been there and seen it to. They practice constantly. When they are not out there they are practicing. I prefer to do funeral detail, if I had the opportunity to do that I would though. No feeling like burying a fellow soldier with their loved ones right there.
