My family came here in the 60s from Europe, and since that time, none of them served our country, including me...I chose to dedicate myself to my studies...though the military was an option.
Take special care to thank those in uniform when you see them. And take a second to say an extra prayer tomorrow for our servicemen and women. Perhaps I'll never know what it's like to fight for the nation...but I sure as hell know what it's like to be free -- and those who made that possible deserve every ounce of respect and gratitude from all of us civilians. There is no greater sacrifice.
