[Krisu]

Sad yes, but also makes me feel proud and safe

 

[Lynn CC]

It is still hard to believe that our young men(and woman) and their famiies have to go through such terrible times.
Very sad

 

[Patabel]

Thank you, Dan. I am so very proud of all our military personnel and their families. It's scary to think where we'd be without them.

God Bless America and all those who defend us!

 

[JAP]

Boy that truly brings it home doesn't it? I pray for our country, our service people and for all those that are going to war. May this end quickly.

Dan I would like to e-mail this to people in my office. Could you help with that? Thanks.

Jen

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

Dan, thanks for posting the pictures. I was certainly moved to tears. DD came running over to me and hugged me and said "don't cry mommy". All I could do is just hug her tight and pray for all of our soldiers, and the families they left behind.
