Happy 4th of July BBG Family
Happy 4th everyone. Be safe, be wise, and be merry!
To all men and women to served in the military services, within the BBG family, and extension thereof, whether be the fallen, the passed, the living, or the ones to come, from the bottom of my heart, I salute to you brothers and sisters in arms. My gratitude and prayers will always be with and for you, the heroes of our grand and free country, earned by sweat, blood, and sacrifices. Thank you for the diligence and dedication to protect us.

THANKS LEO BECAUSE OF ALL THE PEOPLE I KNOW you are the only one to remember me , and all the others of course who went before me , with your sincere thoughts. This day is special to all us vets and so was MEMORIAL DAY, and those are my two favorite holidays of the year.
Most people don't pay any attention to those two aforementioned holidays , other than it's a day off work.
Thanks to all my brothers in arms too Leo, and may you all have a safe and happy holiday and you are all remembered here in TROY GROVE ILLINOIS! A SHORT SIDENOTE LEO , they just put up a monument here in Troy Grove, and it was 15 years in the making and it has listed all who served in the armed forces from town here. Sadly the two fellas who got the ball rolling are now gone , but they are not forgotten .TOOTY
