It is on this date every year now I realize how much closer my son is to his graduation and commissioning as a Second Lieutenant in the US Army. I have taught him well the importance of this date and the service to this nation.
I pray we all take just a moment today and remember those that were lost and their families. And please support our troops and thank a veteran, for freedom isn't free.
Our troops deserve so much more than a simple thank you. They sacrifice so much for us, and truly understand the meaning of "service".

Very true! My dad is a Viet Nam veteran, and I think the most important thing that we can do is recognize the service of our veterans!
ReplyDeleteI pray that when your son graduates, all of our soldiers, sailors and Marines will be home and out of harm's way.
