Made My Day

[frisco-kid]

I have Veteran plates on one of my cars. They have a 101st Airborne insignia on them and are personalized to say "66VNAM". In one corner of my rear window I have a CIB and jumpwings decals.

On Saturday I come out of the grocery store to my car, and somebody has put a business card in my wiper. Jaysus. Now who wants to sell me something? I take it off and read it. It's from a Bob N., and he's a hardware engineer for Cisco Systems. What the...? I turn the card over and he's written on the back: "I don't know who you are, but you should know that there is somebody that appreciates you risking your life in the defense of the freedoms I enjoy. -Thank you, BN.

-I especially admire the jumpwings and CIB!"

As I read the words, I found myself a little choked up and..... unconsiousely standing a little taller. I stood a little taller the rest of the day with a smile on my face.

Thanks for making me do that, Bob.
