Tribute to my father who served 30 years in the United States Army. He was an intelligent, kind, brave man and I was lucky to have him as my dad. He loved every minute of his military career and was proud to serve his country. He is loved and missed by many.
Served in the United States Navy, Armed Guard. January 1942-October 1945, Atlantic, Mediterranean, European and Pacific Campaigns.
Though he has since passed on, he and many more like him have given us rights no one else in this world has. Thank You
My husband served honorably from May 21, 1981 until he retired 1 Feb 2007. He served in three war zones, and was decorated many times. He was awarded the Bronze Star for actions in Iraq in 2004.
My Grandfather served many years in our Countries Coast Guard. He has told me many stories of his time in the service. I am proud to be his granddaughter and to be paying tribute to him and honoring him in my first ever year of voting.

Thank you for your service to our country.
I'm writing in honor of my husband. He served during the Vietnam War. That war may be over but it will never be over for my husband. It left many wounds and scars, although not visible to the human eye they're in his heart and mind. It is only by his faith in God that he is able to bear this burden. He has a great love for his country and fellow soldiers. In spite of his PTSD he has become a great husband, father, and grandfather. We love him dearly. It is through my husband and men like him, past and present that our country enjoys the freedoms we do today.
I am very proud of my brother for fighting for his country. We never knew if he was coming back to us or not. I am glad God allowed him to come home. He is a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. My prayers are for the men and women that have taken his place overseas. God bless all of them.
