It's not often at work where I have a real good day, or time. Sure I like my job, its fun most of the time, I get to see/meet a lot of differt ppl from everywhere. But lately it's been feeling like a J-O-B, but the ppl I work w/are good, most of them are, few of then I consider close friends. But a few days ago (Sat morning) was something differt, an im sure I day I will not forget.
In everyday life it's not often you get to meet/see and talk with Real Life HEROS.
Heros that you have only seen in movies, heard about from ur grandparents, read about in history books. The other day there was a grp of 70 or so World War II Vets flying out to Baltimore Maryland, ages 70 to 105yrs.
Just being in their company made me feel like I was meeting someone, Very important, and something that I would never forget. I
have meet VIP's be4 and have had the opportunity to be in the company of other ppl w/that status, but these WWII Vets are tops in my list list that I couldn't ask for to have been in the company with.
Im a big history, govt. politics buff, anytime I can get envoled with something like that it gets me going, gets my heart just a going. But these Vets, made me feel why im here, why my history is here in America.
History tells us that WWII was a war on two fronts, in European/North African Theater and with Japan. And USA didn't get envoled w/the Pacific War till after Dec 1941
Anyway, just wanted to say I honestly felt a sense of Pride, sense of what it honestly felt like to be an American, an to all that I meet on that day, I say again Thank you for what you did, cuz if it wasn't for what you did, I wouldn't be here today.
Their are plans for more trips for these WWII Vets, an more to be added to the grp. Next trip is this Sat (5/5) I cant wait to see an talk to them.
