There is a saying I have heard before - not sure that I have it right....but:
Remember as you go to sleep each night, that you can sleep peacefully only because rough men stand ready to meet the enemy.
My thanks to the US military and our civilian leaders for keeping us safe for another year. As always, we'll need you again next year.
"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
Attributed to George Orwell
I think a lot of folks are sleeping a little more peacefully knowing these people are doing everything possible to keep us safe.
