God's Blessing to all patriots, living and especially to those who laid their lives down to give us the freedoms that we as a nation enjoy (and many take for granted)...it is a debt that we can never repay.

Another amen.
I recently spoke with an older gentleman as we walked out of the grocery store at the same time. I noted he was wearing a baseball cap with the a patch for a WWII Carrier. I shook his hand, told him thank you. He became a bit solemn, said we should both be thanking those who didn't make it home.

We recently ran across this gentlemen and my wife wanted to get a photo with him. He obliged with pride. When we thanked him for his service, he said the same thing. The real heros never made it home.
Another amen.
