Thank you

November 19, 2012
I admire your courage You protect my freedom Lined fiercely on a field Knowing that everyday might be your last But don't be despondent Your nation depends on you You are all a part of a powerful force Equally important as policemen, firemen, doctors, lawyers, and educators Without your force we would live in flames Because of you I can dream peacefully Know that my family abroad will be okay I can live in a democracy You are our sons and daughters of liberty Congratulations You are a veteran Looking strong and dauntless in your uniforms I just wanted to express how I truly feel about you Thank you for your service
