[Vision2020] A "Peace" of Grass---featuring a GI in Iraq

[Matt Decker]

Rv,

I can't say I agree with Tom all that much, but damn rv calm down. Tom at 
least served 20 years, did you? I don't care if Tom got into a fist fight 
with a Marine and lost, or if it was during the war. Point being you or 
anyone should never take away from a vet, just because he disagrees with 
you.

RV figure out that belittling a person only shows your character.

Ps lay of Rush for a week or two.
another ps Tom thanks for the service.
