That is what makes me uncomfortable, I don't deserve to be thought of in the same company as all those who made the ultimate sacrifice. So thank you, but I hope you'll take a moment to remember and honor those brave folks.

Again, I appreciate it, and those are my own thoughts, not trying to speak for anyone else.
Chip - thanks for saying that. I wanted to but did not know exactly how to. You conveyed my sentiments precisely.
