You got that right. You voluntarily put yourself in harms way for your country, you should feel the pride. Those of us that are fat asses civilians sitting back here in the USA safely while your up on that wall need to make sure its recognized and appreciated.

I found the following worth reproducing and thought that this would be the perfect place to ask for help on behalf of U.S.M.C. Sgt Andrew Tahmooressi:
Excerpt: Quote:
Sgt. Tahmooressi served two tours of duty in Afghanistan. In that time, he survived when an IED hit his truck. Now it is time to serve him. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION TO THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO: Demand Release of U.S.M.C. Sgt. Tahmooressi May 31 deadline to file the required petition ends tonight. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...nment/qslJk2Xd FYI: One of America's important ally in the Greater Middle East region asked why President Obama remained silent when it came to one of their own. We should stop all U.S. mail into Mexico - Then close the border until they free Sgt. Tahmooressi. Imports from Mexico to the U.S. totaled $293 billion in 2012. Thank you to all who have served our country!

It should be said more often by more people.

On this Thanksgiving when you give thanks for your family, please take minute to think about our vets who are having a hard time back here in the real world. Or those who lost an arm, leg or were burned.
22 veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan take their lives every single day, including Thanksgiving. Some are struggling to resume their life after being injured in war. I've started something new. This last Veterans day we had a soldier unable to attend the ceremony at the school due to a flare up from his war injuries. We had the kids make him some get well cards. I've attached some example to this email. If you are so inclined, I can give you names and addresses for the kids to send get well cards to these vets. You can PM me.

Thanks! But, don't post that in DC or the grief will never stop.

I started talking to and helping a guy with his squat and deadlift form at the gym the other day. He was asking me all sorts of questions after watching me lift. He himself was working back from an injury, one sustained in combat in Afghanistan. Said they told him it would never get better and he told me he was having pain just changing his daughter's diaper. Since he started rehabbing himself (therapy wasn't working and they didn't pay for much of it), he's been able to decrease his pain enough and has started squatting and deadlifting! We spent over an hour squatting together and working on deadlift form. It was very moving having him tell a complete stranger like myself about his troubles and his life. Someone like myself that could never imagine being in combat. I've offered to write him programs when he's ready for his lifting to get stronger.
It was a very good reminder about all the sacrifices that many in this country make. Whether you agree with the war or not, their duty is to serve, and most do it quite well. |
