The Strength


You have the strength of a soldier and the willingness to fight. You have the strength that will carry you far through foreign lands. A gun strapped to your back that wears you down, yet you still have the strength to keep going. You have the strength to go on because of your intelligence and experience. You stand strong and face fear like a warrior. You have the strength in your skills and you use them wisely. You're strong enough to ignore the urging cry for help from this new pain. You're stong enough to serve a great country.
