There he stood, less than thirty feet away from me! The cheering went on and on and on. Soldiers were hollering, cheering, and a lot of them were crying. There was not a dry eye at my table. When he stepped up to the cheering, I could clearly see tears running down his cheeks. It was the most surreal moment I've had in years. Not since my wedding and xxxxx being born.

And now I'm sitting here in my office at work with tears running down my cheeks. This President is just awesome and inspiring. His Thanksgiving journey to Baghdad was a defining moment for the troops and for all of us spiritually fighting this war as well. I loved reading the email from this captain. Thanks for posting it.
