Re: Memorial Day
I had been back from deployment for a couple of years when the realization suddenly hit me... I had never worried about my own safety while I was in Iraq, but every night my wife and children prayed that their husband and father would make it through another day. The weight they must have lived with is something I can't imagine.
I'm just saying, don't underestimate the sacrifices of the families.
