    I'm a third generation Oregon Guardsman and a fourth generation militaman. With the end of this deployment I will have spent more time in a combat zone than my WWII vet grandfather.

    The armed forces would never take me, or I would have proudly served my country. Both of my grandfathers served in the US Army. My mothers father was in the invasion at Normandy D-Day + 1. Thank you to everyone who has served their countries.

    I was caught in a draft in 1969 and have been leery of breezes ever since! Fortunately, I graduated from the University of Southeast Asia and returned home the next year.
