John,
Last night I visited your site again, I wanted to find out a bit more
about the man who was so helpful with his words of incourgement, advice
on how to improve my POW/MIA page to be more beneficial to others. I can
think of only two other sites that got my attention and held it as much as
yours, and one of those was Jason's. It was my favorite place to spend
my time. I am attaching an award. Given from the Heart. Its not one
on my site, and can't be applied for, and no link is required. I would
be honored for you to accept it. Your site shows all the love, caring,
kindness and dedication to the cause. Thanks You for a beautiful site
to visit, but more important...offering a hand to a total stranger.
As Always,
~Unique~
Thank you, ~UNIQUE~ ! I am HUMBLED beyond words. But...!, I have to link it to your site, to show other people what a BEAUTIFUL PERSON you are.

Fairy Starlite Comments: Shotgun Jack has the spirit where it counts...his devotion to
his country and the men and women who serve it is echoed in his devotion to friends
and supporters in the Site Fights. The heart and feeling that has gone into creation of
this page...not to mention the spirit displayed on his spirit page...makes him more than
qualified for any spirit award one could possibly give.
Shotgun Jack shows spirit for all through his site! As he offer a Salute to
all the Veterans of this Country. Shotgun Jack is a Vietnam Combat
Veteran, and through his site you will see the honor he holds so dear to
his heart. With Links to dedications, Green Beret, Pow-Mia, The Wall as
well as other Links that will hold your attention. His Spirit reigns
Superior, with his site as well as with his Spirit Page! This Spirited page
shows all the Spirit of the friends he has met through The Site Fights. See
his Great Spirit Cheers he shouts out for the Dragons! Don't forget to
check out his Gold Dragons Page! He certainly has DSpirit with his site,
which has carried him to the Warzone and Representing Darksbane Dragons!
Thank You, so much!!! I am Humbled by your Words!
