I fear that the sacrifices made by all of our soldiers in the past will be 'messed' up or forgotten by the behavior of politicians. Each time I sing the national anthem or see the flag fly or see movies like 'Saving Private Ryan' I remember and feel a deep sense of gratitude for all the lives sacrificed to keep us safe and free in the USA. Thank you so much for your sacrifice and the sacrifice of your family. Many of us remember what you gave so much for. Thanks.
