As we prepare to send time with family and friends, exchanging gifts, attending holiday parties, pause for a moment and say a prayer for the men and women who are standing on the battle fields right now fighting for their country.
Those that won't be able to sit at the dinner table, not be able to watch their children open up their Christmas gifts, those that might be feeling lonely or have to witness things that you and I won't ever have to see. It's a thankless job, but oh how grateful we are to have them.
