Every american service personnel I have met has been a credit to your forces and to your nation. Turned out in proper fashion, with decency and respect overflowing. I have often seen my fellow soldiers comment "if only WE could be like that..."

The next time I run across one of you, I'll buy the beer. Canadian beer, that is.
Hey thank you guys, too. My last deployment we had a Canadian frigate, HMCS Toronto, with us as an integrated part of our Carrier Strike Group. We did an exchange program with them throughout the deployment, and though I wasn't one of the lucky few picked to go over there, all of my buddies who did said the same thing: "It's small, cramped and noisy, but they have BEER!"
