I just happened to have gotten an email late last week from a Soldier, SPC Shaun Lackovic, stationed in Stuttgart Germany in regards to decals/logo use on his Toyota Celica he races in Europe.
As soon as I noticed he was not only in Germany, but Stuttgart, where the SX is this weekend, I started trying to secure additional passes and stuff and then invited him and another soldier to come to the SX as our guest and as a thank you for their service.
He accepted and will look for another soldier who is a MX/SX fan (he's a car race fan)
They're going to get God passes and hang out with us as part of the team and I will take them to meet all the other American riders and get photos and autographs.
With Veterans Day being today, the timing makes it all that much better!
Thank you to all our Veterans
I can only thank all the soldiers for their service and bravery.
Thanks you all for the sacrifices made; the repeated deployments, your courage, sacrifice, bravery; on and on with your country so proud.
A prayer to God that you all come home safely. We love you and may God bless you all.

This guy (see link) comes to our church once a year and speaks. He is a Viet Nam vet who was nearly killed by a grenade. He runs a ranch in Colorado for veterans to help them get back to some semblance of a normal life. He said he never wants another vet to be treated the way the Viet Nam vets were when they came home. Check out his story. This guy is a true American hero.

My grandfather was in WW1, my wifes' in WW2. Although both are gone now, and sorely missed, they were fortunate enough to come back from those alive and raise our families.
Lest we forget...
At 33 y/o, I just finished the fire academy. I was definately the "pappy" in a class full of kids but there were 2 Army Rangers just back from Iraq and let me tell ya..........There's a big difference between a 20 something who has never served and a 20 something who just came back from combat.
All the respect in the world for those brave men and women.
