Vets Day cards....

Well, Veterans Day is coming up and I’ve got buddies serving overseas. So I got some Thank You cards to mail over to Iraq and took them up to the law school to have some friends sign.

And as much as folks get on UNC students for being a bunch of uber-liberal hippies (and yeah, sometimes that’s right), I didn’t get a single bit of guff.

Instead, I got:

“We appreciate your sacrifice and brave actions. Thanks so much!”

“Thank you for your service, I’ll pray for your safe return.”

“May we, here at home, prove deserving of your sacrifice….”

Some years back I asked folks to sign a 24-pack of Budweiser that I then gave to some of my Army buddies….

But I don’t think I’m allowed to put that in a care package….
