Great post!

Thank you to ALL who has served, is serving, and thank you to those who gave their lives so that we can be free. You all have my respect and gratitude.

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.

I'd like to make the following suggestion for a bill. For each tour of duty in a combat zone, the warfighter reduces his federal income tax by 10%. For every year in the military, the individual receives 1% off their FIT. This extends for life.

For any warfighter who dies in a combat zone, his family, in perpetuity, has to pay no income tax. Family means spouse and children.

I know this would cause non-soldiers to pay more tax, but that's fair, since we didn't lay outlives on the line for our country.
