Happy Birthday MilVets and Patriots

Today isn’t just Independence Day, It’s also the site’s birthday. One year ago today Uni and I launched MilVets and Patriots. Our goal then was to provide a space for like-minded people to connect. Whether it was over morning conversation, a quiz or the news of the day.

Since our launch we’ve had 88,702 visits and 1,147,625 page views. Not too bad for a small startup website.

I’d like to thank you, dear constant reader, for coming along with us on this ride. We would be nowhere without you.

I’d also like to thank the team here. AuntiE, Chance, WhyNot, Mack, White Knight Leo and Walt Mow. You have all been a joy to work with and have more than made up for this editor’s faults and foibles.

Most of all I want to thank Uni, because this site wouldn’t exist without her. Here’s to a great first year and an even better future, partner.

As we move into our second year, expect much of the same content that you’ve seen in the past. That said, we are looking for more writers for the site, so if you want to write something for us, please do. Just shoot us a note from our contact page.
