CJ, How many YEARS has this VERY SPECIAL LADY, MISS KILPATRICK, served in our Military? I’m a GRUMPY old hermit, who served during Viet Nam. We have had family serving since the Revolutionary War. We were not considered “favorites” of King George of England. In one way or another, our family has served this Nation in one way or another. I had a Grandmother, who lived to a very ripe old age. During her time on this Earth, she had served this Nation as a nurse during The Civil War. The was even a photograph of a Matthew Brady print showing her, a lady by the name of Clara Barton with this tall lanky Gentleman, outside the Town of Gettysburg, PA. The Gentleman gave an interesting chat. What was his name? Oh yeah, his name was Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln.
Even to this very day, our Family will continue the tradition of Service to this GREAT NATION, each in their own individual way.
MISS KILPATRICK, thank you, for your service to this Great Nation.
