Need Help

I'm looking for someone in the Phoenix area who would be willing to help me by inspecting and possibly picking up and moving a trailer across town.

Veterans Day

To each of you who have served before and those who continue to serve today. Thank you for your sacrifice in preserving liberty for another day and may our nation continue to be worth the price paid.

Francis Marion is not my given name but the name of the United State's first unconventional warrior. He is most remembered from a comment made by British Lieut. Col. Tarleton who said, "As for this damned 'Swamp Fox', the devil himself could not catch him." Francis Marion, or the Swamp Fox, successfully fought the British in South Carolina and was a significant contributor in their eventual defeat at Yorktown.

I have been a U.S. Army Special Forces soldier since 1988. I was involved in the initial "invasion" of Haiti, completed two tours in Afghanistan, a combat tour as an advisor in the Republic of the Philippines, and I am now working as a contractor in Iraq.
