I’m not great at putting emotions into words (just ask my wife), but a truly heartfelt thank you to all who have served and gave the ultimate sacrifice.
To those who have lost loved ones, They were the best of the best. Your child, your friend, your loved one was what the best of us strive to be. There is no bar that measures such selflessness.
They will be remembered.
Support our troops.
Support veterans.
Remember.

I miss Derrick Bohn on this Memorial Day! Carrying one of his greatest productions, IMO!
The Willamette was named after a River in a fertile Valley in Oregon!! Bill at GEC did this knife right!! I wished at the time he had offered it to me as an SFO, but I'm glad Derrick got it; a great and generous man!! R.I.P.View attachment 1573987

These will be in my pocket today. Three days in a row for the Jack and mini trapper seemed appropriate for today. Thanks to all that serve and served. 👍

I have the rope knife in case I get around to trellising tomato plants, but there’s no hurry because they are still small. The flea market Zippo is for lighting the smoker.
Enjoy the day, porch friends!View attachment 1574023View attachment 1574025

Well, we went down to see The Wall of Honor, a memorial to those we lost in Iraq and Afghanistan. It has been traveling the country, originating in Oregon as a high school project of two sisters.
I’m emotionally drained.
While down there, we also visited our son’s memorial, which I do whenever I visit my parents.
The memorial is currently 33 panels, with 104 names on each side. Not just names, but a photo, and brief biography.
Our son is not on there, because he lived eight years after being wounded. But, the panels are labeled by theater, and by month and year, so knowing their names and when they were killed, I was able to locate Jason’s team members. They lost four out of a sixteen man team on one horrible day. I have a photo of these young men’s tributes on the wall, but out of respect for their families, I’ve decided not to post them. That’s not my place. I drove downstate to attend the funeral of one of them after it happened in 2009 (Jason’s best friend) to represent him there, and got to briefly meet some of his family. Here’s a shot of some of my family looking at the entries for Brian, Schuyler, and Scott.View attachment 1573782They have a table set for The Missing Man, a tribute to POW/MIAs.View attachment 1573783Here’s a nice little pin they gave me.View attachment 1573784Of course, there were a lot of veterans there, many looking for the names of friends. Generally, a pretty good crowd to rub elbows with.View attachment 1573786Count your blessings, folks.

Jeff, this post has been on my mind since Sunday. And the posts you made Memorial Day. I haven't commented because I just honestly don't know what to say. Others have perhaps said what I can't seem to find words to say. But simple words just aren't enough to express all the emotions and thoughts that run so deep that you and your family must have experienced and probably do so on a daily basis. Words like honor and sacrifice come to mind, but so do love and pride help to fill the gaps and void left where a young man stood proud to serve his country. We thank your son, Jason, and men like him for the water we drink and the air we breathe in the land of the free and for all the other things we take for granted. I sleep well tonight because men like your son have stood and stand the watch. I feel sorrow, but not as profound as you, your family and other have felt. What I feel is the utmost deepest heartfelt respect for you and your family's loss. But all this is mere words ... never enough. I'm truly sorry Jeff.
