With heartfelt agreement with your blessings to those families. I cannot even imagine. With tears I pray for their comfort and help. My son is in the air force and has served long deployments in the Middle East but not in Iraq or Afghanistan nor in combat, and yet I know firsthand what he, his wife and babies have been through. It’s tough. Only God gets you through it.

Thank you very much Maranatha and God richly bless your son and hold you securely with peace of mind. As parents we’ve been through several combat deployments, sleepless nights, walking prayers really, and not just for our son but for all of them. This president has no clue as to what sacrifice really means. Disgraceful.

No matter where they serve or in what capacity, it’s important and most of all, it’s that spirit of service behind the commitment, that unselfishness; they can shrug that off but we know better and we are all blessed by such attitudes and character.
