Thanks to everyone who said thanks
I want to say thank you to everyone who gave me thanks for being a veteran. Sometimes stuff happens in this country that makes me wonder why I ever volunteered. Sometimes I think many of the people I fought for weren’t worth it. Then I have people coming up to me who know I served and fought, and they tell me thanks for everything I did. And although I am typically humble about my service (since I did not do anything close to what our guys and girls are doing over there now), I immediately accept that thanks because I know the people mean it. I know those people love our country, and they appreciate me doing what I did. And that restores my faith ten-fold.
So thanks to all you veterans out there, and thanks to those people who appreciate what we have done. You are the people we fought and died for, and I for one was honored to do so.
