God bless our soldiers

now, i may not agree with the war, or having our soldiers being sent off, but i do thank God every day for those brave souls that will do anything that their country asks of them without hesitation. Sometimes it's easy to forget that those men and women there fighting are our sons/daughters, brothers/sisters, cousins, friends, fathers/mothers and husbands/wives.

I have only personally known about a dozen people that have been in the armed forces, and only about 4 that have actually been sent to war. but to each of them (and every other soldier i meet), i hold them in the highest regards!

To our soldiers: Thank you all for the freedoms you have provided and protected by fighting for your country. Thank you for standing up for those of us that are too weak or scared to do so ourselves. Thank you for sacrificing your lives if need be so that we can live. All branches of military... all men and women... all races and religions... all ages; thank you for what you have done and may God bless you, be with you and protect you, as you do for us!
