    My uncle Jack piloted the F4 phantom in Vietnam, as a kid I was in awe, thank you to all who've served and who serve today, it's human nature to forget quickly and I think many don't appreciate the ones who served and the many who died for our freedoms, we are overdue for a major war and it will happen sooner than later, then a whole new generation will be reminded of the sacrifices for freedom. 🇺🇸

    I have worn LtCol David Hrdlickas' POW bracelet since 1985. His nephew worked with me in the Marine Corps.
