“I just enrolled myself, after college I decided to go” a friend I met said to me after he told me he was in the Military and got deployed twice to Iraq. Do you ever have PTSD I asked. No he said but I do get flashbacks and I try to just cope when I do.
He wore a name bracelet in honor of a friend who lost his life when he was deployed. It’s real. It’s real courage. Real stregethen. They are just like you and me but they take a chance. Risk their life. Try to protect us and our country. Today is in honor of those people. Those who lost their battle to protect us. Protect people they haven’t even had a chance to meet.
That’s real courage and pride and real love for our country!
