I met a gentleman today in the Financial Aid office of my college. He was wearing commo pants, and was talking about his GI bill to a clerk. I waited until he was finished talking, stuck out my hand and said thank you for your service. He shook my hand, looked me up and down and replied that no one ever says that any more. With pride he stood erect, and I asked him what branch of service he was in? He replied, United States Army ma'am". Big smiles all around from me!

As I looked at his shirt, I saw an American Flag on it, big as day.
Now I dont know about the laws, but I have a feeling that if someone was to attempt to steal that shirt, or a flag for that matter, from him? They would be mushed!

GO ARMY MEN!!!
