So I am at the Gas Station

[LongbowIP]

Getting gas in my truck heading to work tonight.  I am standing there and a gentleman in his late 30's to early 40's walks up to me and hands me this attached card.

He did not say anything and walked away.  After I read it I was like WOW.  Must have been a Republican.  Just kidding about the republican thing.  I was just proud that someone was thinking about the military other than all the bullshit that has been going on lately.

Anyway I thought that was very nice of him.

Man that is awesome, sometimes I want to walk up to one of the military personnel I see (I see them all the time with Fort Bragg, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, Camp Lejuene and Cherry Point all being within an hour) and say Thank You.  Thank you for placing your life in harms way for the blanket of "freedom" under which I sleep. Good to see that in all the uproar, what's most important hasn't been forgotten by some.

Any time we get thanks it is greatly appreciated by us. Glad to hear that you got something good instead of the usual BS I seem to receive from the civilians around here

Does make me feel proud to be an American when someone does something like this. Would be nice if we could attach it to the home page on this site. I thinks that would be way

I too have served 8 years in the military. God Bless the USA...

Right there with you, ridercoach. Felt a little choked there.... emotional moment and to think it was just such a simple but heartfelt gesture from a total stranger. Here's one canadian proud of them boys and girls in uniform. Cheers and salute!
