Today we salute all who have
worn a uniform and served our country. Having never served, I’m not included in
this distinguished group of heroes. I’ve heard phrases like “Band of Brothers”
and “Comrades in Arms” and wondered how different my life might have been had I
heeded the call. When this season of thanksgiving rolls by, I listen to stories
of heroism and sacrifice. Like many who stood on the sidelines, I shed tears
when seeing pictures of unbelievable sacrifice, men and women with broken
bodies trying to rebuild their lives. It isn’t difficult to support patriots
with mangled bodies. Their wounds are often easy to see and deserving of
respect, but too many soldiers carry less obvious scars of war.
Happy veterans day
