caintry_boy Report post Posted February 13, 2014 The honor is all mine brother Guns, I could not ask for better friend than you have been.You folks should know that my Brother there did 3, yes 3 tours in Vietnam and was injured numerous times. He is the sort of man that I'm proud to call my friend and he hangs out with a host of Veterans just like himself. I love him to no end. Now, thank you all for your thoughts and prayers and no, I'm not checking out yet, my friend JESUS is here watching over me. Y'all are like my family and I love y'all.

Guns Report post Posted February 14, 2014 As all can tell CB is too stubborn to go anywhere soon unless it's back home to his family.Talked with him last night and he sounds so much better and one of my club Brothers after visiting him called me up, said he looked night and day way better than the day before when visiting him.Now CB you know way more about me that any man should. Yes Vietnam did leave a few to many holes in me.Love you my Brother still hit my knees every morning and night. Just getting harder to get up off of them.
