First, thank a veteran today. Find a WWII vet, or one of our recently wounded warriors. Find a Vietnam veteran and make sure he understands the way he was treated by this country thirty five years ago does not reflect the way we feel today. Talk to a Korean War veteran and listen to the stories he has to share. Talk to a submariner from the Cold War era. He won’t be able to tell you much, but believe him when he says that war was real.
Thank every one of them.
Here’s a good look at what some of the men and women currently serving, and why they’ve chosen to do so.
Secondly, thanks to all of you. This has been a long, hectic month. I know posts have been irregular and infrequent, but it’s not due to a lack of interest on my part or “burn out”. Over the past three years, there have been times when this blog has had to take a backseat to my “real job”. This has been one of those times.
Thanks for your patience. I appreciate it. Will we be returning to normal soon? I believe so, but don’t quote me on that just yet.
Yes…Live Blog tonite. Gary’s Baby Boy in town. Plenty of hype and I have a few opinions I believe you’ll benefit from. More on that later today.
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
