Special “Veterans Day Afternoon” E-dition

HEADER-NOV 11 AFTERNOON

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2016

Mess Call was 1200 this afternoon…

image004… for members of the Anderson Veterans Society of all races, creeds, and sexual orientations on the  which had begun at 0600 outside Ohio Second District Congressman’s “Bronze Star Brad” Wenstrup’s Office located at 7954 PFC James Miller IV Memorial Highway (aka Beechmont Avenue), so Anderson Veterans could visit every one of the 487 area restaurants in Anderson and the surrounding tri-state areas offering Free Food for Veterans on Veterans Day 2016.

image005Our first stop for Lunch at 1200 (that’s noon for civilians) was a complimentary meal with some Navy SEALs Veterans at the Market Buffet at Belterra.

image005Then at 1300 (1 PM for Draft Dodgers), we were enjoying chicken crispers with Army Ranger Veterans at Chili’s in Harper’s Station, wherever the hell that was.

image005image009Then at 1400 (2 PM for Deserters) , it was back to Anderson with Air Force Pathfinders Veterans for a special menu with options like three-cheese chicken penne, 6-oz. sirloin, and double crunch shrimp at Applebee’s.

image005Then at 1500 (3 PM for Dishonorable Dischargees), we scarfed down chicken parmigiana, lasagna, or cheese ravioli, with unlimited soup or salad and breadsticks with PFC Kadon and his Marine Corps Raiders Veterans at Olive Garden.

image005But unfortunately at 1600 (4 PM for Cowards Who Never Served), members of the Anderson Veterans Society Grub Crawl couldn’t enjoy a free chili dog and a small Pepsi beverage with the Coast Guard Deployable Operations Veterans at Wienerschnitzel, because those restaurants are predominately located in California and Texas, and anyway, we didn’t want to spoil our dinner with all that free food we were all looking forward to this evening.image003

For Love of Country

            image009When Hurricane Isabel approached the Capitol in September 2003, our US House and Senate took two days off because they “couldn’t work.”

            ABC-TV Evening News reported that, because of the dangers from the storm approaching Washington, DC, the military members assigned the duty of guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier were also given permission to suspend their assignment.

            They refused: “No way, Sir!” Soaked to the skin, marching in the pelting rain of a tropical storm, they said that guarding the Tomb was not just an assignment; it was the highest honor that can be afforded to a service person.

            The tomb has been patrolled continuously, 24/7, since 1930. We can all be very proud of our young men and women in the service no matter where they serve. God Bless them.

            On the other hand, we’re waiting to see how long it takes for all those new honorable men and women in Congress to join with the holdovers to vote themselves another pay raise or ObamaCare waivers before the Worst President in History leaves office in only 70 more days. It will be the umpteenth freaking year in a row.image003
