Veterans

The Army has finely considered my dad a Veteran. We got a letter by George W. Casey Jr. General, United States Army Chief of Staff and Pete Geren Secretary of the Army. The letter states:

Dear Glenn T. Robb

You have been submitted for a Freedom Team Salute Commendation by SPC Hyrum S. Robb for your service as a United States Army Veteran.

America has always called upon the Army to do the hard jobs. and its Soldiers have always answered the call. We are a free Nation, a Nation looked upon by millions of people around the world as the standard-bearer of freedoms-freedoms guaranteed by our outstanding Solders and by the Veterans who have served our great Country in the Regular Army, the Army National Guard and the Army Reserve.

We are an Army of tradition. Our greatest tradition if service to our County, and in that service we ask our Soldiers to carry out tough mission all around the world. Today answering the Nation's call may take them into harm's way as we fight the Global War on Terrorism, a war that touches us all and on that we must win.

As today's soldiers serve, the the traditions and legacy passed on by the Army Veterans in precious conflicts sustain them so they can so what must be done to protect our freedoms. Our Army would not be the best in the world without the service of its Veterans who continue to provide support and exhibit patriotism. You make a difference to today's Army and to our Country.

There is more to this letter but all its states is about a pin and a thank you for his service within the army. There have been protest against the military for their service. People went so far as to spit on theses solders. That just tells me that these people don't enjoy the Freedom of our Nation (if that is the case move out). This Nation is free because countless of solders have dided to make us Free and keep us Free. To these people I say Thank You!!!
