Happy Thanksgiving


Deployed American forces all over the world generally get a great dinner today. We're no exception: ham, turkey, prime rib, boiled shrimp, 3 kinds of hand-dipped ice cream, 3 kinds of cake, and "red" and "white" sparkling grape juice. No wine in deference to our Muslim hosts.

Being 9.5 hours ahead of EST, it's tough watching football. Noon games don't start until 9:30 PM here. Best of luck to the Lions and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

I hope it's not too late to say, "Happy Thanksgiving, sir!" Thank you for keeping up such a great blog, too!

Tell those around you that a U.S. Veteran says, "Happy Thanksgiving!"

You people are GREAT! Thank you for your service, sir. I thank God for all our service men and women who serve so proudly. All of you are in my prayers.

God bless you!

Missing the Lions games recently has probably been a blessing (wish I'd missed the recent Eagles games). Maybe you'll get to watch some of the BCS bowl games by getting up a bit early?
