Taking a moment to express a heartfelt thank you to my grandfather, my uncles, my brothers, my sister-in-law, my brothers-in-law, dear friends, friends of my children, and all who have served our country in the Armed Forces. Your bravery and sacrificial way of life astounds and humbles me.
My thanks, also, to your families who give of you from their everyday lives, and are left with, not only the extra work of running a family without you, but the loneliness and uncertainty that is part of the lifestyle. You are all heroes.
God bless you and God bless America.
