Watching the classic 1953 War of the Worlds this weekend, it struck me that the role of the Soldier is to stand between Harm and Home and face the danger.
Let us remember those who served and still serve.
All gave some.
Some gave All.

Is now and ever has been thus.
The vast majority never even give it a thought. Today, less than 1% of the US population is in the military, 99% are clueless about the price paid for them to enjoy their prosperity, smart phones, computers, and games.
Read "Tommy" by Rudyard Kipling for a soldier's viewpoint.

I spent 7 1/2 years in the army. Too bad that most people are clueless about what it takes to protect their freedom that they take for granted.
