To the fallen. To the wounded. To the forgotten heroes. And to those who continue to fight for the real America. Peace. Honor our veterans because many, such as Obama’s grandfather, didn’t get the respect they deserved when returned home.

To the fallen.

To the wounded.

To the forgotten heroes.

And to those who continue to fight for the real America.

Peace.

The younger was a medic in Fallujah - fortunately for her, after the worst of it. Both are home safe after honorably serving. Once again, great praise for the men AND women of our armed forces.

I wore the uniform with PRIDE, yet when I see these young men and women serving today, I feel humbled. It'd be an honor beyond measure to wear it again with them.

And I wish that your brethen also enjoy a peace filled day. When I was young enough to serve, I was too self-absorbed to consider it. And by the time I had matured enough to realize what it really meant, I was too old to serve. I am thankful every day that others saw better. Thank you, Mr. Reed for your service.
