Pride

LauraMacNCheese

"It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

"Thank you" just doesn't seem to be enough but...my thanks to the men & women of the United States armed services and their families. Your sacrifices are not forgotten.

With close friends and family on active service and on a day where we lost three servicemen to a rogue member of the Afghan police, you are in our thoughts.

Thank you!

My heart is set between the airforce, or joining the peacecorps in two years. I HIGHLY admire all of our armed forces. They are amazing giving any amount of time. My friends who are military wives ALSO go through a lot and are amazing when they stand by their men (vise versa for the military hubbys). Having such a commitment for the country is great to see. Thank you all that has served, is, and will!

Great thread. I appreciate the men and women who serve in our military. I've been known to randomly walk up to a soldier/soldiers to say thank you for their service. They always seem to appreciate hearing that even from a complete stranger. A big THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU to our military persons and their families. :drinker: :flowerforyou:
