In 2007, I was given the humbling privilege of being made an honorary member of the United States Marine Corps in recognition of my visits to troops during the Iraq War.
But despite their heroic acts, the Vietnam Veterans of America continued to struggle to establish a combat badge in honor of these brave pilots and medics.
I was overwhelmed by how military families felt supported and honored by 'Nubs.'
I guess it's sad that anybody, regardless of profession, that they're in this country, would take a shot at our military.
There is nothing like a parade to elicit the proper respect for the military from the populace.
We know that priorities are amiss in the world when a man gets a military medal of honor for killing another man and a dishonorable discharge for loving one.
I always wanted to get the Purple Heart.
Though triumphs were to generals only due, crowns were reserved to grace the soldiers too.
