  1. Smoke,

     

    Glad to hear your helping out as well. The WWP is special to me for personal reasons, my dad was one of the "Forgotten Ones". He served and defended our country in Korea and then in Nam, where he got injured. Our country did nothing to help him with his disability but he was still proud of his country and never said a bad word about it, which he instilled in me. I feel that we as a country should NEVER forget those who were injured while willingly serving our country, its the least we can do.

     

    Ya man, I hear ya. My dads dad was Full Colonel USAF, served in WWll, Korea & Nam as a b-17 pilot and B-52 pilot. Spent YEARS upon YEARS away from home and my dad never saw him until he was 11. My moms dad was LT Commander in the Navy for 15 yrs then became a Merchant Marine for 21 yrs after that which yielded very little family time. Both were men who served their country and never complained. I admire everyone who served and enjoy volunteering my time for people who keep this nation free.

     

    Heres to our veterans.

  2. Hey Champion, I have seen your wounded warriors project banner on the bottom of your sig. One of the organizations that I volunteer with goes hand in hand with WWP. Ours is called forgotten soldiers outreach program. its a local program in South Florida sending care packages/goods/supplies to our men and women currentley deployed.

  3. December 7th 1941 is a day that will live in infamy.

     

    My grandfather (LT Commander LTCDR)was in port on the U.S.S. Colorado in Pearl Harbor having maitenence done to his ship just 2 days prior to Pearl Harbor. He left on the 5th to take off for repairs and missed the incident by 2 days.

     

    Lets remember all of the fallen on that day that sacrificed their lives for our freedom then and now. Veterans make this country free, least we can do is to remember their sacrifices. :flag::flag::flag:

  4. Nice pics! I have to admit though, I don't take care of the engine compartment on mine very well at all, I think I've wiped it down once in 5 years. :dunno::sigh:

     

    Believe it or not, it only took me 20 mins. I just sprayed some windex on the plastic parts and wiped em down to dry them out, then wiped it down again with armorall wipes. Quick and easy and great results. Try it, takes only a little time with great results.
