		<description>Ashley,

I really like how you wrote this ... if many more would realize what the Soldiers sacrifice day in and day out whether they are in harms way or doing their daily missions wherever they are posted.   It&#039;s also the sacrifice that their loved-ones &amp; family are making, for often, even not deployed, the Soldiers&#039; job is not 9 to 5 as many in the corporate world view.

Having worked with many Soldiers over the last years,  I can relate, but one has to walk a mile in their shoes to truly understand.

A sincere thank you goes out to all our military who have and are serving.  You gave/give of yourself so we can enjoy what American freedoms are the envy of the world.

Sincerely,

John Michael
