What a heart warming post. Our retired military deserve wonderful things and endless Thank yous.. but in a situation such as this, when free
anything is given away, you can expect less than wonderful in my experience.
And in Ohio we have a little saying.
For Free....take.
For Buy....complain.
It is just the way life is.
Again....Many thanks to our Military.
