God Bless Them |  |
| The young man stood proudly strong in stoic silence, his eyes focused on the moment, hearing the words read as the medal was bestowed for what he did in harm's way.
Returning the salute given, he then looked up and whispered thanks, which told so much more... of being resolute in all he holds dear that overcame any fear when death was near, as he fought to defend his beloved America and the freedoms She gave to him and all, even willing to take the ultimate fall.
And the same is so, for the many brave ones like him ... serving now, before, and yet to come.
God bless them for answering duty's call! | |
