J November 10, 2011, 1:00 pm you skipped Don Mahurin. He served during the Vietnam war.
Thanks! He\'s in there now!
LG November 10, 2011, 1:16 pm Valerie, what about all the current military personnel that are serving from are area, or that have just returned from tours, there are a lot that are not on this list that should me mentioned somewhere. That would be a nice story or tribute. Also unless I have over looked, I have not seen anything on a service tomorrow in our area.
- I only have names of those that have been submitted. Feel free to add to the list! It\'s growing every time we run it!!! -Valerie
LG&F November 11, 2011, 1:49 pm I also wanted to send our thanks to all who have served and all that are currently serving our country we appreciate what you have done and what your are currintly doing for us. Remembering you all.
