#1 One of the reasons I'm able to sleep at all is due to knowing the caliber of troops that America has fielded, both now and throughout our nation's history. We are among the few who inculcate our soldiers with independent thinking and critical analysis during their training.
I make a definite point of personally thanking and shaking the hand any military veteran I chance to meet. Active or peacetime service is irrelevant. Korea, Vietnam, the World Wars, Gulf Wars it matters not in the least, they have all earned my profound gratitude.
I am immensely grateful that we have such honorable and dedicated people defending our nation and individual liberty. |
