Veterans Day

Congratulations to Rear Admiral Kent Davis who has been honored for his dedication to Alabama veterans. Alabama veterans are fortunate to have Admiral Davis as a devoted advocate. Thank you sir for your service and commitment to Alabama veterans. I assure you that we are proud to recognize you as The Patriot of the Year, well deserved.

A special shout out to all veterans for their service and dedication to the United States of America.

Many veterans paid the ultimate sacrifice with their lives, you will never be forgotten.

In 1968 my cousin Freddy Johnson gave his life for his country. Born Oct, 27 1947 killed April 6 1968 in Quang Tri Province, Vietnam. He was a spec 4 in the “Screaming Eagles”, 101st Army Airborne, one of the most elite units of the Army. We spent time together in New Jersey before our enlistment and even talked about joining the buddy system, however he went into the Army and myself into the Marines. I was in Dong Ha Vietnam only 9 miles from Freddy when he was killed. His death had a profound effect on his family and friends and myself, to this day he is remembered. RIP Freddy
