MILWAUKEE (AP) - "Thank you for your service." Lots of veterans will be hearing that today, Veterans Day. But in Milwaukee it was a mugger who thanked an Army reservist -- and gave him back his wallet. The robbery victim is a 21-year-old University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee student who was robbed early yesterday morning. He says four men mugged him at gunpoint. But when one of the bandits found his military ID, the robber thanked the young man, apologized and told the others to return his stuff. The apparent leader of the pack also gave the victim a quick fist bump. The victim asked not to be named because his keys are still missing. Police say they're looking for the muggers.NOT EXACTLY A HALLMARK MOMENT--BUT PROVES HOW WE ALL FEEL ABOUT OUR FAMILY/EXTENDED FAMILY/FRIENDS, ETC...WHO SERVED--AND GOT SERVED BY THE POLITICS OF THE DAY

TAKEN FROM THE SEAL CREED--parts i liked///
The ability to control my emotions and my actions regardless of circumstances sets me apart from other men.
My Word is my Bond.
We expect to lead and be lead.
I lead by example in all situations.
If knocked down I will get back up every time!
I will draw on every remaining ounce of strength to protect my Teammates and accomplish the mission.
We demand discipline.
We expect innovation.
My training is NEVER complete!
We train for War and fight to win.
Execution of my duties will be swift and violent when required
Brave men have fought and died building the proud tradition and fear of reputation that I am bound to uphold.
In the worst of conditions the legacy of my Teammates steadies my resolve and silently guides my every deed.
