It was the only way they could show their appreciation to their saviours.

We did an exercise in 🇳🇱 and went to a town called Groningen and we only had BDUs to wear. One guy had an 82nd combat patch from desert storm and the local college students recognized the patch and the rest of the night we were there our money was no good at any establishment. Great people
