[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1508432, member: 54178"] As a Former Peace Corps Volunteer (Philippines, '66 - '67) I would also like to thank the many non-military government workers who have risked dangerous situations abroad in the service of their nation. They too are "veterans". They too made sacrifices, sometimes the ultimate sacrifice. Not that it equates in to service in a combat zone but I do recall the trips in Mindanao through Moro (Muslim) rebel territory at night under the canvas of a full grain truck to avoid detection. And yes, I park in "Veterans Only" parking spots. I earned it. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
