Geoff Milliard is a lifetime member of VFP Chapter 16 in Washington DC.
I hate being thanked on Memorial Day (on Veterans Day too for that matter) because it is a day to remember the dead and I think at the same time we should be fighting like hell for the living. I'll bask in being a veteran the day no more of us are committing suicide, none are homeless, and we stop creating new generations of veterans.
