Great article, thanks for sharing it.

It is sad that so many people feel freedom is free. It never has been, I can never see a time when it will be.

The cost of freedom has always been very high and it has always been blood. It will always be blood. If there ever comes a time when we, as a people, are not willing to pay the price, our freedom and the freedom of future unborn generations, will cease to exist.

I sleep in peace this night knowing there are heroic men and women of the American military and intelligence communities who stand in harm's way to protect, me, my family, and our way of life.

God bless 'em.

By the way: Allied WWII veterans are passing away by the thousands each week. If you know one, take a minute to tell him how much you appreciate what he did 60+ years ago. It will be a minute well spent and you'll never regret it. It won't be long before they're all gone. I doubt most of us can ever begin to understand the sacrifices that generation made to ensure the freedom we enjoy today.

God bless all of our vets! God bless America!
