I just had to do this after watching a doco on TV and those horrible days came back to me and the Army told me and the children to prepare for the worst. But that didn't happen thank God.

I wish to thank all your servicemen and women who have given and still give so much not only to you in the US but to many in this world. My family appreciates it more than you could ever know.

I especially wish to thank that Blackhawk helicopter pilot and his crew... whoever they were .. who landed under fire and took my wounded husband and his team out of that desert hell a few years ago.
(Of course SOME husbands might of learnt from that you would think )

So from someone who cares and will not forget all of ours and yours ...

Unto God‘s gracious mercy and protection we commit them. The Lord bless them and keep them. The Lord make his face to shine upon them, and be gracious unto them. The Lord lift up his countenance upon them, and give them peace, both now and evermore. Amen.

Amen.

And thanks to all of those still fighting, still away from home supporting, and still serving. It is a huge personal and family sacrifice. My family and I appreciate and will be forever grateful to you.
