NickHolt Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 Fewer and fewer actually pray these days, and even fewer who would even consider praying for our military heroes and first responders. But, at least in Texas - and a few other states - there are those who truly understand that whatever freedoms we have left were won by courage, honor and blood. Our Heavenly Father, bless and protect our military members and first responders, honor our veterans and bring lasting peace to the families of those who lost loved ones for the cause of freedom.

hray Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 I heard a woman on the radio yesterday telling a story about thanking a veteran. She saw an older man with a baseball cap on with an infantry patch on it so she said "Thank you for your service, Sir". He responded right back, "You were worth it." Best I've heard!

top_shelf_12 Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 No matter political differences, one thing I can't stand is when someone disrespects a military service person, their families, and first responders unjustly. My daughter's grandfather was a city officer for a long time, I've seen firsthand the sacrifices their families make, the worry they have and that was in good times, know several active and former military personnel, several officers and firemen and have nothing but respect for all of them. Yes there are bad apples and I'm not defending them but 99% serve faithfully and honorably. So to those men and women and their families, thank you, not just on a holiday, but everyday. HiTech, hope you can find a singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
