Once Again
Once again I make my rounds to talk to my fellow veterans gone from this earth and once again my heart grows weak. I wish I could truly express how grateful I am for the sacrifice each of you made so I might have the life I have. Thank you Benny.

Making Rounds
Making my rounds this Memorial Day. I wish I could have a short talk with each of you I visit. There is so much to share and yet so much silence abounds. I am now an old man and yet I cry as I wonder what could have been. Thank you Benny.
