As the mom of 2 active duty military guys, I want to thank your precious BIL for his service. Thank you for making something comforting for him, as well. No one knows what kind of traumas these guys go through, and the news media wants to keep it secret. Praying that we will pull out of the middle east and just let them deal with their own issues.

Thank your for honoring one of America's heroes. Please tell him that a grateful America says thanks. We can never repay our service men and women for the sacrifices they make to protect us and keep us free. God Bless your BIL and his family.

We must never forget that freedom doesn't come free. There will always be a price for freedom. God Bless your BIL! Words will never adequately express the debt this nation (and all its people) owe to those who fight for our freedom all around the world.

Remember them in your prayers, always!

Plz tell your BIL a HUGE thank you for his service for all of us. We honestly cannot thank him enough for serving let alone what he has given up for us. God bless him and all of you.
