In Honor Of.. (lazy BUSE-meant for Wed)

Wednesdays are usually reserved for the whooping of tricks but this Wednesday is a little different. It is Veterans Day and rather than hate I believe BUSE ought to show some love, especially since Kid Grey's dad is a Vet of the Vietnam War. With the country currently engaged in two wars it's important to understand that supporting the war and supporting our troops are two entirely different things. Go ahead and disagree with why our men and women are there, but do not let that stop you from showing support to the men who are merely doing their jobs in the armed forces.
Today I would like to honor two specific soldiers that I personally know who have put their life on the line, Eric Herrera and Dominic Davilla. Both have fought bravely, unfortunately though, they both have not made it through unscathed. The very real consequences of war hit home when the legs of a friend were taken from him. Veterans Day, I want to truly thank the soldiers who fight to preserve the ideals and ideologies we as Americans hold nearest and dearest to our hearts.
