If you served one year or thirty years, if you did it with honor, thank you.
Thank you for hurrying up just to wait.
Thank you for dealing with the stress and the heartburn.
Thank you for the endless inspections and exercises.
Thank you for the Real World too.
Thank you for all the TDYs, PSCs, ORIs, PT, & BS.
Thank you for the blood and sweat.
And thank you for the tears.
Yours, your spouse's, your parents', your children's.
Thank you.
