DonkLand Memorial Day Celebration

[Auto Donk]

after watching numerous vids that had me ready to enlist in the armed forces, I was ready to post a bad ass vid of the aTm Band paying tribute to our soldiers.....

but for some damn reason this vid kept poppin up, as some sort of DonkLand Omen.....

so first I'll post it, then get down to business......

I guess she was the daughter of some bad ass Fighting Texas Aggie's time served over in Nam, so kudos to him for knockin' up that babe's mom.... now, a fitting Memorial Day Tribute, with the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band doing what it does best....

the start as always is bad ass, but the tribute to our Nation begins around 5:25....

and now to the really patriotic stuff:

NEVER forget those who have paid the ultimate price for us to live in this country as free as we do....

Have a good Memorial Day, Gents.... and never forget....

now, as the day is one on which we historically party.... and now that the solemn tribute it over.... let's crank it up a little bit....

no matter how you feel these days about that skirmish with sadaam back then, this was one bad ass moment of the American Spirit, NHL allstar game shortly after the bombs started flying:
