USMC General Alfred Gray

Welcome to AAPK's Veteran’s Forum. This is a place where veterans can meet, get to know one another better, perhaps swap a story or two, and share any recent information that they have acquired from the Veterans Administration, DoD and Veterans Service Organizations, including but not limited to, DAV, AMVETS, VFW, American Legion, PVA, and MOPH. Another good source of information are branch specific organizations.
We will have a voluntary CHECKING IN topic where you can introduce yourself, years serve and branch or branches of service. Welcome Aboard!

I thought maybe some of you Marine veterans might like to see this, from Arlington National Cemetery last week.

Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

The Marine Corps really knows how to honor our fallen, be it in battle or peacefully in their sleep. Semper Fi General Gray. RIP

Very impressive ceremony, and appropriate honor.

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.
