Diesel and Gun Nut
I just wanted to say thank you to all of our military for doing what you do, day in and day our, home or abroad, on this site and off.
I can't imagine what its like to leave your family, friends and home behind to go overseas. I spent 7 months in a military style police academy where my performance was able to get me home every 2 weeks and that was difficult. God bless you men and women who are selfless and brave enough to enlist and get through basic. freedom is defended by men and women that are above and beyond the average american citizen.
You will always have my support and a hand to shake when you get home, as well as my wifes, my parents and my friends. Yes, we hear about all the negatives on the news. We always do. Thier leftist agenda will never convince me not to support or show my colors for my troops.
For all of you who have served or are serving, it means alot to us and I thank you for it. Get in, Win, Come home safe. Thank you.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice,—is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other.
