I’ve kept my fruit salad, one fatigue jacket, field jacket, on Derby soft cap. I was able to wear the fatigue for almost 30 years before it got tight in the shoulders and around the waist.

Skeezix was awarded a purple heart. Shrapnel in the leg, I think.

It just might still fit you too, Skeezix.

I’ve got my uniform in mothballs. No freaking way it’d fit me now, of course!

We owe the WWII vets about 10,000 memorials and then our debt still would not be fully paid. Good for you, Skeezix.

Does anybody recall this event from ten years ago, in the comic strip? I doubt that the archive goes back that far.

Are you going to give another speech? Awesome! You guys are right, we all owe the vets a debt we can never repay.

I still have my field jacket. I can’t believe that at one time it fit perfectly. It must have shrunk…a lot.
