“The meaning runs deep for those men and women who’ve served this country: 'Honor & Respect Always — Warriors for Life!’ COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
Good Saturday afternoon Colonel.
I've been extremely fortunate to have had 2 careers that were meaningful.......but to me. Some probably think one, the other, or both were a waste of time, but that's their problem.
Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Sharing the Good News of Jesus with any and all people is the most meaningful way for me to live my life. Have a blessed day today and always.
