Many deploy, not all return. While civilians stateside pray for local family and people with life threatening diseases such as cancer etc…fomer civilians turned solder, airman, marine, sailor, or special operator are living with a constant threat to life in the form of IED, ballistic projectiles, food borne illness, and other sorts of calamities civilians in the states cannot imagine. Please extend your Christian prayers to those deployed to defend your freedoms………and please show respect to the flag of this great nation, for every time it is acknowledged correctly those silent acts of respect and prayers of the heart “build up” and sustain the defenders of those liberties, the known and unknown warrior, in times of need.
