Thank you for sharing. :clapping:

The pictures are amazing...especially the one with the kid hiding behind the soldier for protection from a sniper just after a car bombing...the caption says it all.

 
Definitely worth a look. My favorite was . . .

"When you get home and face an anti-war protester, look him in the eyes and shake his hand. The, wink at his girlfriend, because she knows she's dating a *****." ;)

 
Thanks, Borrec. I've forwarded that on to many patriots who are on my mailing list.

I liked 2 quotes. The first was told me by my Step-dad who was a decorated WWII Marine, who received a battlefield promotion to Sgt. on Tarawa:

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand redy to do violence on their behalf." George Orwell

And, from the Confederate Memorial, Arlington National Cemetary:

"Not for fame of reward, not for place of for rank, but in simple obedience to duty, as they understood it."

That speaks volumes for many comrades-in-arms of my generation who didn't return home.
