I'm a youngin (27) guy, and perhaps biased from many uncles who were in the service (Korea). I carry around that Selective Service card in my wallet wherever I go. I may not want to carry it, but by law I have to. I'm too young to remember the last time the draft was invoked and, frankly, if Selective Service was ever activated there's a strong chance I'd hightail it and move to Canada (or perhaps Mexico where I can at least get good tequila).

I'm d**n proud of all of those boys and girls who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way.

Whether politically you agree with what's going on in the world or not doesn't matter...everyone shoud feel like they need to support our troops. If it wasn't for them and their committment, it could very well be yourself, your son, your grandson, or whomever on the front lines. Regardless of our political differences, we should all be expressing our thanks for all of our troops who are willing to put their lives on the line and give them the same love and respect as if they were members of our own family, politics regardless.

Let me know if there's anything a socal guy can do to help

My son is in Special Operations. As a mother, I am so proud of him, but I also worry. We never know where he is going, what he is doing (very little, if any, communication with us), when he will be back...if he even comes back. He is fiercely loyal to his country and the job he does. He always says that the American people don't know everything and because of national security, shouldn't know everything, but he believes what they are doing is right..........and that's good enough for me.

He's getting ready to go back out sometime soon. I visited him in for about 10 days the end of January and he was here on leave in early February. We had not seen him since May of last year. I thank God for every minute I've had with him because I don't know when I will see him again. So, please, support the troops and their families that are left behind. There was a rally cry of "United We Stand" after 9/11............let the troops know that we still stand united..........no matter what.
