Hello from PA
« on: March 28, 2010, 07:45:12 AM »
I have posted a few replies and figured I had better post my into here.
I'm a disabled vet with just shy of 10 years service in the Navy flying helos.
I been a self employed logging contractor , so hence my nickname, "Woodhick"
So that should tell you where I stand with the tree huggers. :rotf:
I was raised in small community and still live in the same one now.
I like most conservatives, am fed up with the total disregard  of the Constitution from the same politicians who took an oath to protect and defend it.
I as many folks took the same oath. I have always firmly believed that the oath I took was for LIFE , not just for the time served in the military.
I also firmly believe we need to take back our republic, not by violence, but by casting  a vote for the most qualified person , and knowing who that is through research of their background of their stance on issues.
I look forward to sharing and discussion of thoughts on issues with conservative minded folks.
Hope I can be an asset to this forum.
Thanks
Fred

Welcome!

Thank you for your service!!!  :heart:

Deb you are quiet welcome, my pleasure.
I was out of the service for 20 plus years before anyone ever told me thnak you. It was a nurse at the VA Hospital in Pittsburgh. It borught tears to my eyes.
When I returned for a follow up appointment, I took along ALL my metals and awards as my aviator wings , and gave them to her.
Took me 3 hours to find her and when I did she remembered me from all the patients she attended. I told her I had something for her and handed them to her. She then also had a tear in her eyes. We just gave each other a hug and I told her thanks for her commitment to serve  veterans.

As we are of the same age, I'm assuming you served in VietNam. I remember...

My mother was a Navy nurse during WWII. My dad was a corpsman, and my son was an AO(?).

Welcome from South Jersey!  Are you lucky enough to be in the central, western or northern portion of PA and not in the Dem mecca that is Philly?
