    I have the utmost respect for all over soldiers and Marines.

    Not everyone can serve in the military. BUT everyone CAN serve in some capacity by helping with little things (buying a drink, etc) to serve the ones who served us. So rest easy McC. You done good.
    I fall more under the "not everyone should serve" category... not because I think I'm better or it's beneath me, it's more like I don't think it would have gone well for me at the time... at least not until I turned 40 did I think I had the right mindset (and then It was obviously too late)
    I have the utmost respect for those that have served, and like others I regret that I did not... but it was not the path I chose.

    And MC, I think you did nothing wrong- he left you the hat because he thought you deserved it more than him.
