No worries. We’re on a plane right now from Houston to Minneapolis, MN. One of my former Captains from OIF 05-07 is retiring as a full Colonel on Saturday.

Moving forward is always what we should strive for. An occasional side step is allowed, but in the long run you can't get anywhere worth being unless you're moving foreword.

Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. I’m sure that many times there are folks that find, life too hard to move forward, but that’s not what God wants from us. We need to trust God and shake off the dust and move forward. Have a blessed day today and always.
