It is quite a a tribute as it is the 93 anniversay of his being killed in action.

The Stickle Family thanks you for a job well done.

He’s a former national news anchor and author of the “Greatest Generation.” I personally thanked him for highlighting a generation that kicked butt and took names. Whew…we could use some of those guys in Congress right now! Think Dick Winters and Carlton Lipton!! (i.e. Band of Brothers)

Its a day that my pops and i put up the flag in front of our house! Its an amazing feeling knowing as you raise those colors you have the wonderful opportunity to think about all of those wonderful men and women who have given their lives whether it be in service, or meeting thier maker, they are the GREATEST!!! For those of you who are reading this and are veterans i salute you! As a 19 year old young man i am ready and willing to follow in your foot steps! THANK YOU!!!! My family and i went out to lake Mead here in Nevada and as we are heading out in the no wake zone we passed many parked boats at the dock there. One boat in particular had not just the American Flag but also a U.S.M.C Flag. My dad being an old Marine had us stand and just give a brief moment of thought it was great! There is also this particular mountain top there at the lake. My family beached not to far from this mount, and at the top, you could see a flag pole! My dad said at one time there used to be a flag there, someone took the initiative to bring the pole and flag and raised it up. I guess wheather and such blew the flag away. So i told my dad that next time we go out, we are bringing a flag and raising OL GLORY once more!!! A great way to get in the spirit is to listen to and really really think about our National Anthem! GOD BLESS EVERYONE! May i and others take the reins from those before us lead the next generation of FREEDOM FIGHTERS!

All of my family together, burgers on the grill, kids in the pool, cold beer and warm sun. We wouldn’t have times like these if it wasn’t for those brave Americans.
