Gentlemen:
I read this today and thought of the two of you.
Sacrifice is a word that we have heard during the recent campaign. The word
has the same root as "sacred." We are told that we will be asked to
sacrifice more in the future.
Today on Veterans Day, let us acknowledge the sacrifice that the military
men and women, and their families, make daily. They sacrifice time, income,
relationships, health and often the supreme sacrifice, life.
Their commitment can serve as an example. It can help us to keep things in
perspective as we make sacrifices in our daily life.
We already know this. What I found interesting is that it was written by a
woman who had never served in the military. It is nice to know that some
non-veterans out there "get it".
Hope you are doing well. Take care, Dave
