Served in the US Army from 11/79 - 11/82. I'm proud to be a Veteran. I think that everyone should give at least a few years of there life to serve and protect our country. Serving in the military will show you that freedom isn't free. There is a price that is paid by those who serve. Never take your freedom for granted.
