you know....i just don't get the liberals and their attitude.....how can they not be proud of our young men.....every once in awhile...like just now....I read the letter from son's CO which came with his NAM and i swell with pride and then I cry.....these young men are the most exceptional part of America.....
Proud Dad of Lcpl Daniel
I am not a parent or spouse or relative of a troop, but I am proud and I cry too. I have "adopted" many troops over the past few years.
Your son is indeed special to be a Marine and to merit the Achievement Medal.
He and others like him give me hope for the future of this Nation. These troops have inspired me to greater patriotism and to fight to preserve America domestically.
I am so grateful to your son for his service.
Proud American of Lcpl Daniel here.
Thanks to both of you!
these young men are the most exceptional part of America.....
AMen and God bless you.
