My Dad was a WWII veteran. The "Great Generation". My cousin was killed in Vietnam. A lot of friends and family who have served, a few paying the ultimate sacrifice. Some young sons of friends serving right now are in some very hard places. Some have come back home and are dealing with haunted memories, wounded bodies and hearts, empty space where their brothers in arms fell. Pray for the soldiers, the veterans, and the families of both. Thank the Lord for our country, its great people, and ask for His Hand of protection on all who have or are serving. Today remember each soldier, his/her family, loved ones left behind, scars that will be forever etched on their hearts. Just remember and pray with me. Today.
