Another Day Above Ground - Thank You Lord...


From the arm chair ((my walker)) I just know this evac could have been handled so much better, but considering the time, amazing effort -- but very high cost....  

Guess I will continue updating... stuff still seems to just drop a day or two.... Oh well, Life Goes On...


Not really sure why, but it seems that I have been adding the same names to my Brothers lists these days and for some reason they are not taking for more than a day...  And my profile keeps going back to a day or two eaarlier, even if I update this part every day....
Oh well... keep tryin'

Be A Good Talker, But Also Be A Good Listener....

One Day At A Time Lord...

It Costs Nothing To Be Kind To Someone...

Maybe a waste of time?...  Gonna keep on anyway...
Been told take this down, change this and that... Well, I will continue doing what I think I want on my profile for my survivors to see about what I know that I was involved in... -- my MOS was NOT authorized a CIB for my time in Nam, guys there after me with same MOS got one -- Oh well, I know what actual enemy fire I was involved with (including some really close one on one encounters) and since our medics didn't always get their notes -- if they themselves even made it back to the firebase -- into our records, the purple heart that I should have gotten well, again - I can show you the scars but could care less about what extra eye candy I can pin on my casket when my time is over...   So will continue to carry on...  God Bless All...

Currently retired... living with my Service Dog (Charlie) and trying to keep my health ((lots of Agent Orange and PTSD issues)) from getting any worse...  Used to love traveling in my Motorhome... but no longer able to do that...  Kinda getting all this military history together so that hopefully (maybe after i'm gone - they sure don't appear to be interested now) my family will take the time to see what all I did thru the years...

Continue to update and use my TWS profile to do my part in making sure Brother and Sisters are Remembered...

Charlie - yes, we have heard all the jokes about a Nam Vet with a dog named Charlie...  But he is my life saver... So much Loyalty!!

Every Morning... A Gift

God speaks to me every morning...  He tells me to 'get up and get out of bed... I am not done with you yet!'...

So I promise Him that I will strive to say what needs to be said to whomever crosses my path today..
.

And in appreciation for that daily 'gift,' I end each day by thanking Him for the day and promising Him that, if He gives me one more day, I will try to do better...

     --- Pops (D. Cameron - 9/15/2019)

I just want to live this life running, and when it's done, I want to be totally out of breath and scream... man what a ride!

=====

Keep God In Your Life and Move Forward...

I have several MOH and POW Vets in my Remembered Veteran group that I wanted in my Rememrance Profiles group -- just can't figure out how to get them there -- So please Check them out -- Great reading and info...

 History is not there for you to like or dislike... It is there for you to learn from. If it offends you even better - because you are less likely to repeat it. It is not yours to erase -- It belongs to all of us! 

-= We're all part of One Race - The Human Race... =-

Remember the Past but Live for the Future...
Today's a Good Day to have a Great Day...
Never...Never...Never Give Up...
Live Each Day As If It Were Your Last - Ya Never Know...
Take Time To Be Kind To Someone Today...


Praying that the hate in this country
will not destroy our nation.

My Travels

By no means, would I consider myself a world traveler, however, I have been to more places than most people my age. Mostly in my military travels, but sometimes with family. Viet Nam, Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Midway Island, Berlin, and Germany were military associated travel; Mexico, Italy, German, Switzerland, Austria, and Canada were family associated travel, and some of each of these were also combined military and family. Although I have been to most states in the Continental United States, I have not been to Hawaii.
