Last night Joel and I stayed up, as late as I could keep my eyes from going criss-cross from sleepiness, to watch the History channel's "America: The Story of Us". I fell asleep with one thing on my mind, that being the power of the American spirit.
"Freedom is not free."
Carved into the granite wall of the Korean War Memorial, these profound words remind us that it is not only the American spirit that has brought us this far, but it is the sacrifice, service and undaunted courage of our armed forces that have won and secured our freedom.
Thank you...THANK YOU...to those who have served, to those who are serving, and to those who gave their lives...so we can continue on - The United States of America: the land of the free.
