<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1300786, member: 19065&quot;]I would like to add to this thanks to our veterans by saying that many members of CT, many collectors of US coin and paper money are themselves vets, whether they served in wartime or peacetime, whether they are active CT members or have moved on in life or in passing, they deserve the thanks from us as fellow citizens enjoying our freedom and as well as our thanks as fellow collectors whom we share much with here. I thank our veterans for their service, commitment and sacrifice.</p><p><br /></p><p>The note in the first post was an excellent choice, as Grant was both a General and later Commander in Chief who spent his entire life in service roles, from cadet at West Point to the top position in the White House. He didn&#039;t do so well later in life as a civilian after he was out of office if you know his history of personal tragedies with health and finances, but nevertheless, he too deserves our thanks for sacrifice and maintaining our union and freedoms.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you one and all.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/Souvenir Cards - Engravings/1896_5_SC_Rev_Replica_ANA_1980_1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/CT CONTEST/1922_GRANT_Commem_Half.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/CT CONTEST/Grant_Monument_Bklyn_01.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
