No one made them sign up for this: they chose it. They chose it because they love the rest of us, and because they chose to serve in harm's way, we can all make the choices we want.
Honor them. |
Thank you!!!
It gets old hearing someone (90%) whine on campus about war this, president that, American killers this. Being that I am 29 and older than about 95% of these students of *higher* education, I just shake my head and hope that someday they will learn...
