I found this video on Facebook with a request to share. So I am sharing. All of these videos and these holidays about our great country really cause me some emotion. My husband has spent two tours in Iraq, but before that he was in other places of the world fighting for freedom. Freedom is his occupation is what I like to say. He loves his country and loves the Navy and the Marine Corps. He has been shot at and blown up and I am sure some day he will have to deal with those things. TBI and IED are words in our vocabulary. Soon he will begin another 3 years of sea duty which means deployment. He will be headed to Camp Lejeune in North Carolina to run a BAS for the 2nd Marine Division. He is my hero and I miss him unbelievably when he is away. Well, darn I have got off track here – watch the video and say a prayer of thanks for all those that keep us FREE!
