Veterans Day is a time to remember the brave men and women who serve our country and who protect us and fight for our freedoms that we so take for granted now a days...
My husband a retired Naval Officer who I have been married to for 2 years and served this country for 28 years. He served as a Navy Seal for 18 years and said that if he had a chance to do it all over again.. HE WOULD...
He was member of 3 separate Seal Teams and all of his buddies he served with never made it. My husband has been shot and stabbed numerous times and has the scars to show for it. He was on a secret mission when their aircraft went down and he was the only survivor of his team. He broke almost every bone and had to learn to walk all over again... But he still went back... You will never hear these stories on the news.
He has seen the worst that humans can do to each other and has witnessed things that you cannot imagine. He struggles with why is he still alive after all he has been through... why has GOD spared his life some many times. I have always told him that it was GODS intervention that brought us together. He needed someone in his life who would wake him from the nightmares and be there for him with open arms and love him unconditionally...
My son will be graduating High School this year and in July will be entering the Marines... That's all he has talked about for the last 12 months. It's in his heart to serve our country... I am very proud of him but SCARED as HELL!!!
