Korean War veteran Julian Bernard of Auburn takes an order from Vietnam veteran Chuck Starbird of Mechanic Falls during the craft and toy fair at the VFW Post 1603 Hall in Auburn on Sunday. Bernard, a Marine who served in Korea from 1951-1955, retired from Federal Distributers and started making the sculptured collectibles out of Norwegian birch seven years ago. Starbird, a Marine who served in Vietnam from 1968-1969, is the president of the VFW Post 1603 Riders, the first group of post motorcycle riders in the state.

I live in Maine, Steve. I don't have ObamaCare or RomneyCare, with or without the cute little mark. I have incredibly expensive private insurance, the only thing left after 20 years of Democrat incompetence. I suppose you're talking about the Peoples Republic of Hawaii. Have another pineapple sandwich.
John Kerry did not receive the Congressional Medal of Honor. If he had, I bet he would not have thrown it away with the others. The most heroic thing he ever did was marry Nurse Fuzzy-Wuzzy.
Dukakis sure looked fierce in that tank. What a hero.
