I have worked for the traffic department in our local clerk's office for 3 yrs & have become good friends with many of our local law enforcement. One in particular is a Cpl with the Florida Highway Patrol & happens to be the father of the person on my bracelet.His son died shortly before I started working there and, being his only son, it was a really rough time for him. I have worn a Vietnam POW Bracelet since the 80's and my husband has recently shown an interest in wearing one. Sooo, I decided to order a new one for myself and pass mine on to my husband. I noticed that the Cpl had a silver one on & when I asked if he would mind if I got one with his son's name on it, he just smiled & said "not at all". Since most of the US is not personally affected by the loss of all these men & women, I felt this is the least I could do to remember all those that 'GAVE ALL'. Thanks for offering such a unique & special item. GOD BLESS THE TROOPS - HERE, THERE & BEYOND!!! THEY WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN!!!Maria GFlorida
