Pirates Lair is right, we owe our freedom to participate in a forum to our soldiers.  It's a real shame that threads about a soldier's sacrifice are barely noticed here and the threads about training, coat color, breeding, or bashing each other are the most popular.  Whenever I post a video/picture about military or police dogs and their handlers, no one hardly notices.   So sad!  If only all of us had a serving heart, then this world would be a much better place. 

 Pirates Lair his name is Andrew Carpenter.

Kczaja, I was never raised in a sense, to be respectful or supportive....or anything like that towards the military. But I have close friends who have been serving in Iraq, friends that I graduated with a few years ago. Talking to them, seeing what they've gone through, talking to older ones who have served as well, and seeing what all they've done for us......not to mention the ones who didn't survive. It takes a toll on you, and I have a lot of respect for what these men and women do for us. A man I go to church with, use to be in the army. I'm best friends with his son, but he had put it like this one time.....These men basically give a "blank check" with their life written on the check. And they know that they may never come back alive, but they sacrifice their lives for ours! 

I put together a little Tribute to the Military, this is what it means to me.

Please enjoy.  In the part for the Present you will see my brother with my parents.

thank you both

I am so sorry for the loss of your friend. God Bless Our Troops! My husband has been in the Army 20 years, my heart aches for that child who will never meet the brave hero that was their father.

Amen!

Thanks to all of our soldiers past and present.

I am so sorry and my deepest condolences.

My husband is also military. I cannot imagine if I were to lose him. My prayers are for Andrew's wife in her time of sorrow and need.

AMEN as well!!
God Bless our Troops and their families....of today and past decades.
Because of them...we live each day with freedom.
*Protect them , dear Lord....for they protect us*.
