I whole heartedly reiterate the thanks to those who have served, are serving, or plan to serve in the armed forces. As someone with multiple family members who have served or are serving currently, I have always taken great pride in saying I have relatives brave enough to have fought for their and my freedoms.
Anyone who hasn't watched it, Band of Brothers is a great series that gives a close & personal aspect of some of the brave souls who took up the call on D-Day and on. I just watched them all this past weekend and it gave me an even greater appreciation than before to those who fought and gave their lives and those who fought and watched men who became their families lose their lives during that hard fought campaign.
