I'm not "the troops", Kathy...I'm just a Sailor who only get shot at ONCE in a while.
There's no comparison to the lads in Fallujiah or Najaf right now. I'm Stateside.
I STILL would like a good night's sleep once in a while.

Cut, You are the troops. You may not be infantry or Marine recon, and you may be stateside. But, this War on Terrorism is only beginning, I am thinking. You may have it good now-(no shooting)- like I do. So let us be thankful we are safe and sound. So we can be ready to take the place of those who are not.

You are a Sailor. You are a protector of America. You ARE one of "the troops". Maybe not the best analogy, but just as every business must count on everyone, including the janitor, to do their job to be successful, so must our military. Comparisons should not be made. Each of you must do your part to make the whole work. You are doing what you were assigned to do. As long as you do your job, and do it well, the whole is successful. And I thank you for your part in the whole.
