Yes, it doesn't matter if they were doing spec ops, hauling ash and trash, or training, they put their lives on the line for us. Next time I see a pacifist holding a sign, I'm gonna say better men than you have died for their country... That's worth repeating. There are guys stuck emptying portable latrines that should perhaps be saluted twice-- just in case they didn't see it the first time-- it may be a crappy job, but in war there are no meaningless jobs.
All gave some, some gave all.
I never forget. Prayers for those we lost and all that serve this nation. May He comfort those who wait .
