Subject: FW: Happy Brother's Day

Happy Brother's Day To You.

You may have served in Combat or in non-combat.
You may have retired out or you may have served for a short time.
You may have been a draftee or a volunteer. You may have served in the Corps, Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard or the Merchant Marines, BUT YOU SERVED. YOU DID YOUR JOB HONORABLY and for that I am PROUD to call you Brother.
You may have served during Korea, WWII, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Iraq or Afghanistan, However, you served; you did not run.
You have a DD 214 with those words "HONORABLY DISCHARGED" two of the most noble words in the world.
Again I am proud to know each and every one of you.

* Today is Band of Brothers' Day*; send this to all your brothers, fathers, sons and fellow veterans you know. Happy Brothers' Day!

To the cool men that have touched my life: Here's to you!! I was never a hero, but I am thankful and proud to have served among them.

A real Brother walks with you when the rest of the world walks on you.

Every veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made "Payable to the United States of America for an amount of up to and including my life"
ONE NATION UNDER GOD

I haven't heard of it, but cool. Let's not forget our Sisters as well, though.

India has a "Brother's Day" but not the same meaning. Unfortunately my sister didn't recognize the Indian version either. :-(
