"Veterans are Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Brothers, Sisters,
Friends and Lovers. They are the elderly people who can barely stand but
refuse to sit when old glory passes by. They are the people who sit
quietly thinking of a plan when everyone
else is panicking; the ones who stand up for somebody’s rights even
though they may disagree with them. They are the ones who celebrate
Memorial Day and Veterans Day everyday of the year. They are the people
who keep going when everybody else gives up. They know the meaning of
“The Ultimate Sacrifice” and are willing to make it without a second
thought. They do not ask for praise or glory, only that you Honor those
who have given their all."

ReplyDeleteGreat sentiment and reminder.
ReplyDeleteThey're also the ones whose young wives slept near their coffins as it lay in state in their church. That's one picture I cannot look at. I should; it's the least I can do. I owe it to them both.
ReplyDeleteGod bless our veterans.
Thank you all.
