I just wanted to tell you guys how much I appreciate this forum and it's people. I vacationed for a year in that lovely resort town of Tikrit, Iraq. I found you guys while looking for a used boat to buy. I have not bought the boat yet (long story). But what I did find is a place to learn,share,laugh,cry, and enjoy. I do my job because I was taught to do the best at whatever I do. To respect my elders and to say "yes mamn" and "no sir". I have found people here to belive that same thing even if we do not view the world the same way. For that We Are AMERICANS and FRIENDS. I just wanted to say Thank You! Jason

popuptarget, I knew you were back home, but had been wondering about the boat situation.<br /><br />Thankyou for your service.<br /><br />May I suggest, a very small boat, one that has no room for the mother-in-law. :)

Here's a hearty thanks from one who never served (too young for Vietnam), but grateful to all who have regardless of where or when. There, I actually just took my hat off to all of you who served or are serving our country!
