Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Here is just a short story from a website with a number of stories from veterans deployed overseas during the holidays. Remember to keep all the US military personnel deployed overseas today in your prayers this Thanksgiving:

Bill Shepard of Plymouth, US Army, Korea: 

“I came back home after the Second World War and then was recalled during the Korean War. It was a shock — I hadn’t even really told my new wife that I was still in the Reserves…
“I wrote a letter home from Korea on Thanksgiving Day, November 22, 1951, that my wife has saved. You can see by the letter :
Am so full I can hardly move! We just finished eating a huge turkey dinner with all the trimmings. I’ll enclose the menu. Typical Army — feast or famine, but today we had the feast.
We were up on the front lines eating cold K rations and then suddenly we go to the rear for Thanksgiving dinner, and then right back to the front line!”
