Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you,

Jesus Christ and the American Soldier

One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.

Wow! If that doesn’t sum up a love of country, I don’t know what does.

This is a precious picture....Bless them.

But actually, Christ died for our soul/therefore our freedom.

Our hero soldiers die protecting our freedom.

I don't think I'm making a fine point, but the point needs to be made.

God bless our military....we love them dearly!!

I concur. Without Jesus, nothing else matters.

But as a veteran myself, I love our men and women who put their lives on the line to protect what freedom we have left.

While those two brave hero’s would do anything for American Freedom, “Mack Daddy the Zebra” is doing everything he can to destroy the American Freedom.
