“The meaning runs deep for those men and women who’ve served this country: 'Honor & Respect Always — Warriors for Life’!” COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
I'm a firm believer in the theory that they break the mold when one is born. Being different is what is necessary to be successful in life and cheap copies just don't cut it in the long run.
