In the United States of America:
We don't worry about catching a bullet while casting our ballot.
We don't fear being arrested for dancing in a You Tube video.
We don't scan the skies for incoming missiles during backyard barbecues.
We don't suffer the horror of having our school girls kidnapped en masse by masked terrorists.
These are just a few of the things going on in the world today that we Americans don't have to worry about happening to us because of the brave men and women who sacrificed their lives in the name of our freedom.
Thank you just doesn't seem to be enough, but it's the very least we can do.
Thank you to all of my comrades in arms, past and present, who died so that I can sleep peacefully in my bed.
