Exactly. You look at some of these guys, even younger veterans and you would never know the insane stuff they've done. That's why I always respect everyone

What a extreme honor, God bless them both. I was not even born nor serving at the time however lost many biological family in Vietnam, world war one and two. Meeting up between those two gentleman would be the best Christmas present in years to do. Wishing them both the very best in life.
