~Who's Got Your Back~
by Autumn Parker

I am a small and precious child, my dad's been sent to fight. The only place I'll see his face, is in my dreams at night. He will be gone too many days for my young mind to keep track. I may be sad, but I am proud…My daddy's got your back.

I am a caring mother. My son has gone to war. My mind is filled with worries that I have never known before. Everyday I try to keep my thoughts from turning black. I may be scared, but I am proud…My son has got your back.

I am a strong and loving wife, with a husband soon to go. There are times I'm terrified in a way most never know. I bite my lip, and force a smile as I watch my husband pack. My heart may break, but I am proud…My husband's got your back..

I am a soldier. Serving Proudly, standing tall. I fight for freedom, yours and mine by answering this call. I do my job, while knowing the thanks it sometimes lacks. Say a prayer that I'll come home…It's me whose got your back.

Thank You To All Who Serve Our Country
And To Their Families Who Support Them.

Saving this to share.

I thought you would like that Meg.
I think we should all do what we can to greet them as they come home at the airports.

Hello all the Finest Friends!

and welcome to you GulfWar1Vet! glad to have you with us & thank you so much for your service to our country. If you have not done so yet, please send a pix to Billie for the pix collages (at the top of thread). She is now collecting them to put together the next one.

Busy day(s) here.. still doing dances with the furnace.. which is NOT old.. but of course NOT UNDER WARRANTY!

it is completely computerized & so no pilot light renewal with a match (unless you want to see Jesus immediately)

Below is pix of my FReeper FRiend Chief "OneLoyalAmerican, with his lovely wife ... pix taken last year. OLA is assigned with homeland security here in Cleveland & came from Chicago where he was in Coast Guard Reserves. He participated in FReeps, support of GWB election rallies, various meetings on the local level. He is drawing near to the end of his tour.. Has bought property in Ohio & plans to live there with his dear wife. (It must be our great climate? cough, cough. )

Thank You OneLoyalAmerican for your service!

Oh Rus.. no need to thank. I am sure you feel as I do.. we do so LITTLE in comparison with the troops who give so much..

thank YOU for Military Monday.. a great thread which is unfortunately not blessing the lives of too many here at FR.

God Bless!

[DollyCali]
