I am a veteran, having served during a time of peace, but still proud of my service. Not called upon to actively fight for my country during my military service, I took the chance to serve as a civilian in Iraq, where I am now. A large part of my decision to do so is my desire to support those who wear the uniform now, engaging an enemy more dangerous than we have yet faced. Strength is all that they respect, even as they spit on those who oppose them. Too often we are under “blackout” conditions (no phone or email for the troops) because a fellow soldier, sailor, or Marine has died and the Service needs to make sure that the family does not find out via a news story. These young men and women are incredible. Most Americans, indeed most Europeans as well, do not appreciate the storm these troops are not only holding back, but defeating. They have earned and are duly owed our respect and gratitude. If you have not found a military support group (such as Project Valor – IT) to support, do so today.
