Many thanks to you and your father for your service to our country. I long ago learned and have kept in mind that the peace, freedom, and prosperity that I and other civilians have enjoyed in our lives had to be paid for by the sacrifices of our men and women in the military.
It wasn’t my father, but the author’s.
I totally agree with you; if it wasn’t for our Christian heritage and our forefathers who served and protected this country — we wouldn’t be here today.
