Yes, it's emotional, and made me think of how proud I am of them. They are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice while I sometimes complain about the silliest, most unimportant things. :|

As a Gulf War Veteran, and the father of a solider recently wounded in war, I want to thank Lizzie for her incredible work. No one should ever forget what our Military men and women continue to do for us, as well as all those who have done so much in the past for us. Given the ultimate sacrifice for our Country . May God bless each and everyone of them ! And I pray for the day they can all come home safely.

Beautifully done. I wonder, as a Navy vet who only missed 30 days leave during the Cuban missile crisis, why we abolished the draft if we all find these folks who give up their freedoms to the military so wonderful? Shouldn't we all be willing to serve in some sort of government service? Sinatraman couldn't go in the military so he became a cop but most just shrug it all off and do nothing. There are schools to be manned and hospitals that are short handed, streets and bridges that need repairs, why is government service seen as some sort of negative? We are after all a republic and by definition in a republic all people serve equally the needs of the whole even if that means giving up some personal advantage.

i agree with you Landschaft. most 18 year olds are too imature for college right away. also since women are being allowed to fly combat, serve in subs, fight in combat though they are not infantry or armor classified, isin't time that 18 year old women be required to register for the draft like 18 year old men?
