Today is a very important day for every citizen of the USA. Memorial Day is our day to honor those who have served in our armed forces and remember those who have given their lives protecting our country.
A few of my good friends have served in the Armed Forces. Here’s a quick shout out to ‘em.
I first met Octavius Ryan while he was working at Calamos Asset Management with my bro Corey. He’s a fantastic software developer. He served in the Navy and did something that involved him flying in planes that were quite close to the ocean. Thanks for your service bro.
In addition to being an online marketing yoda and fanatic fisherman, Scott Ford served our country by doing something he is not at liberty to disclose. All I know is that he is bilingual (Arabic), and despite his friendly demeanor it is apparent that he is a hard ass. Thanks for your service, my friend.
Chris Christenson is my father in law. He was also in the 101st Airborne in Vietnam. He’s the reason I am no longer fearful of firearms. He also did a hell of a great job helping his wife Sandy raise two daughters, Sloan and Stephanie. Thanks for your service Chris.
Ian Young and I first met at SellingSource. He’s the rhythm guitarist for Raising Craiger. He went to the Air Force Academy and later served our country as an analyst, doing fighter aircraft testing. Although I have no idea what the hell that means, I do know that Ian is great at math…so it probably involved that. Thanks for your service, my friend.
Alan Hamilton is one of my favorite people in the internet marketing space. He kept our country safe as a member of the Marine Corps. Thanks for your service, Alan.
