Lew - 

You have no idea how much this meant to those soldiers. Back in the late '80s 
I was attending the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) annual 
convention in Washington DC.  Lee Grenwood had just finished singing his 
wonderful 
song "God Bless the USA" and as the lights came up I wsa but one of many 
senior soldiers  in uniform trying hard not to let the tears show.  A civilian 
gentelman walked up to me, stuck out his hand and said "I just wanted to thank 
you 
for all you do."  In my entire military career no one had ever said that to 
me before and it is something I will never forget. On behalf of soldiers 
everywhere, let me just say thanks to you for remembering
