I would like to send a shout out to all of our military men and women you left your family and friends to serve your country and defend fighting for freedom for everyone. We are grateful for your love and that you serve to protect us from harm fighting for freedom for everyone. To God we offer up prayer to protect and give you strength to be victorious in all that you must do to protect red white and blue. Fighting for freedom for everyone defending your country from danger or harm. I met a young lady yesterday morning walking her little sister to the bus stop, the family has just recent moved into the neighborhood however she told me that her mother was in the military in (Irak) and she had just graduated from high school and that she take care of the sister while her father is at work. Let us not forget to pray for our military peoples and their families they make a very big sacrifice for all of us. I hope the this reach the eyes of those in the military, just know that we love and appreciate you so much.

My love and prayers and certainly my respect to them all as well. My oldest son is in the Army. He is due to deploy for Iraq in two weeks. His wife is 4 months pregnant with their first child. He will be gone for a year. She will be moving in with us while he's gone. Our servicemen and women and their families all sacrifice much. So support the war or not, please support the troops!

that is more than enough for them to know that they are loved by people back home. i know they loved to hear all those stuff and those reassuring comfort and to fell being sought. i may not be one of them but i know what it's like. i work with them side by side, eat together with them at different times of the day, laughed when having down time at work, go with them in some gigs but all of it is nothing when all they have to endure is loneliness from family, love ones and friends way back home. just keep on telling them good words of appreciation even if the situation seems so gloomy at times, if not all. they would appreciate it so much when they know that they are taken cared of and someone remains at their side even at the most troubled times in their life. glad you started this..!!

Yes, this is a good discussion. They should be given respect and trust as they are the protector of the people in a nation. They are our heroes today since they protect people at the expense of their lives. I salute you folks.
