Some things must be repeated time in again, year after year. America must never reach a point where it forgets the sacrifices our men and women perform in uniform, every time their nation calls upon them to do very extraordinary things.

Pinging some friends to read a GREAT post that starts... Today my wife talked me into going to our Veterans Center for the annual breakfast.

Thanks for posting your experience, timydnuc. And thank you for your service to our country. Our troops are the best. Bar none.

...just a reminder:

When in England at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of ‘empire building’ by George Bush. He answered by saying, “Over the
years, the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return.”

It became very quiet in the room.

“A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to ‘The United States of America’, for an amount of “up to and including his life.”

“That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.”

Your post was stunning!! Thank you.
