It's a shame that soldiers don't get much recognition. Expecially with my
generation. Maybe the absence of a major war in my generations memory has
blinded us to the fact that strangers offered their lives protecting our
rights, lives, etc. 'Tis a shame.
It takes a lot to be a soldier - I know that I'd probably never want to go
under fire. Heck, I could have joined the Army Band, but I was afraid!
Kudos to all the vets, alive or not, that have fought for their country and
what they believe in.
