    Greetings artyman76,
    It is impossible to express how your words make me feel.
    Particularly when you mention our men in uniform.
    Not much can make me feel as proud, as to have touched them.

    I received an email from one of our boys stationed in Egypt.
    All I can say is that, what I read is the real deal payoff for me.
    I've been blessed to be able to live a dream, and from my heart,
    I thank you for helping me to realize just that.
    Be safe and well,
    Kenny

    daughter, now in medical school, listens to you when she needs to find her center. My
    son, now a USMC sniper has introduced you to his band of brothers. In very dark
    situations, they, as my son says in a recent email, "Get cool. We listen to Rankin, Sassy
    and Getz." Good company.
