How blessed we are to live in America and how much we owe to our military. We realize freedom is not free but because of the many who are willing to put their lives on the line, we do enjoy freedom. If we ever wonder how privileged we are to live in the Land of the Free, think about the multitudes who migrate to America and the few who desire to leave. Mulitudes of people the world over would gladly change places with us. My heart and prayers go out to those who serve in our Armed Forces. My mind goes back to World War II when my dear husband served in the Navy for 3 years. At the same time, his two older brothers were serving in the Army. It must have been a very trying time for his parents as news and communications were very poor in those days. When the service men and women would write home, everything they wrote was censored and much information was cut out, leaving parents and families still wondering about their locations as well as their safety. Those were very difficult days and so are the present days for those who have husbands, wives, sons and daughters serving our country. We appreciate them each one.
I encourage EVERYONE to fly 'ole Glory with pride and support our troups. My God bless them one and all,
Dortha
