This is the best damn country that has ever existed on the planet. It is every American's duty to serve this great country.

To those who were gravely injured in defense of this great country the country owes everything. To those such as myself who merely served, it was an honor to do so and the country owes us nothing. Not a federal holiday, not a veteran's hospital system, not a GI bill, not a free burial, not a damn thing.

A yearly salute to those who served.

It's more than enough.

Serving was the reward.
