Let me add my debt of gratitude also. Thanks for the great sacrifice that all of you are making for OUR country. We owe you more than most people will ever realize.

Former Tennessean here. 20 yrs up near nashville and 6 in Shelby Co, until "local politics" drove me down to Olive Branch. Now I'm down on the Gulf Coast.....yes, moved in just 5 weeks before Katrina took my house away.....
