Gotta Love the Military. I have always supported our troops especially after my best friend (now fiance) and a few other close friends joined the Air Force, Marines and Navy after graduating high school. Even with that I never really knew what it meant to truly support them until I moved up to Alaska and spent time on base. I've met some amazing men and women up here and one day I realized, these are the same people that are fighting for us all over the world. All of these people are someone's son, daughter, husband, wife, mom, dad, cousin, best friend. And they do it not because they have to...because they want to. That, to me, is just amazing and I cherish everyday with the friends I have made here. I now, more than ever, know what it means to love and support our troops. "Live everyday like they are deploying tomorrow." |
