We honor, or SHOULD honor, our military on a daily basis for their service to America – My America, YOUR America, Our America! They lay their lives on the line. We often hear on the news the ultimate sacrifice which soldiers make across the world protecting our nation from those who threaten innocent civilians. But, what about the other half – the support network – wives, husbands, children, loved ones, family members that are left behind all so often!
Sharla Shults‘s insight:
America’s voice is your voice
Within a country where there’s choice
‘Tis beauty more than just landscapesIt’s courage amid heartaches
Knowing that freedom is not freeWith a high price paid for liberty

Thanks for this wonderful post, Sharla. My sister will be delighted to read it – she is a Military spouse and had to sacrifice a lot for this…
