Recently my wife and I were gifted with a cruise honoring veterans. From World War II to the present, many men and women were represented. It was humbling to be included in such a group.
The retired Joint Chief of Staff and the Chiefs of Staff of each military service were also on board. I am a United States Air Force veteran, and to shake the hand of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force was my honor.
Vietnam veterans in particular received a long overdue thanks. The cruise line went all-out for us. It was truly the experience of a lifetime!
