Happy Veterans Day

Coming from a family with 3 generations of Marines, I have a profound appreciation for Veterans and want to wish everyone out there a Happy Veterans Day; a holiday dedicated to American Veterans of all wars. My oldest brother David served and recently retired from the United States Marine Corps.  Serving in both Desert Storm and Occupation of Iraq, he along with millions of other served our country and assisted in the protection of the american people. He was a helicopter pilot and received a purple heart while serving in Iraq. His dedication and sacrifice he has given makes me extremely proud of him and I thank him and all the other millions of americans who served in our armed forces.  While he is known as Lt. Colonel David Young Lamaku, to me he is my big brother. I love you Dave!  OOh-rah……

Thank you for your tribute to our military family. We should always remember all the men and women who serve our country and make it possible to have the freedom we have. They do so much and expect so little in return.
