A friend, a Navy Seal during the Vietnam era sent this to me. I found it very humbling and poignant. I hope you enjoy it.

Pretty much sums up how I feel - thanks for posting.
My Dad's brother Vernon was a bomber pilot in World War II who was shot down over Germany. A young promising life cut short, leaving behind a grieving family and a beautiful fiance. He would never have his own family, see his grandchildren, or enjoy any of the more mundane things that we take for granted. All his plans for the future ended that day, sacrificed so that we as Americans can sleep peaceably in our beds.

I applaud the video as others have. I stand with these people, both figuratively and literally, as a good number of the 'rodeo crowd' come from hometowns like the one in which I was raised or the one in which I currently reside. I just wish THESE people had Hollywood, the news media, and all types of celebrity touting THEIR views instead of the views of the coastal elite that view these hard-working, hard-playing Americans as uneducated, uncultured, intolerant buffoons.
