    Thank you all for the kind words

    I believe I am following in my grandfathers foot steps
    When he was a private in the Korean war
    He served his first tour with 25th ID and got his purple heart with them
    Now so many decades later
    I am with 25th ID in Iraq and now I got myself some pruple to pin on

    Like they say...

    Thats one award you never want
    But are very proud to have

    6 more months to go!
