who have made the supreme sacrifice in the war on terror. They shamelessly use the numbers to advance their own political agenda. While each death of a soldier holds an honored place in Americas history, they are but a handful compared to the millions of men and women who have given their lives to protect our freedom and that of other peoples around the world. As we approach 5000 war dead within 5 years of war, not counting those lost on 9/11, remember that we have lost that many in one battle at times in our history, and not that long ago. During WWII, the loses in the Pacific were staggering by comparison.
Most of all let us honor their sacrifice by remembering that each and every one of them chose to be there. Their unselfish sacrifice in giving their lives for the cause of freedom is what sustains our freedom today.
When you gaze upon our Flag, you will see them marching behind it stretching to eternity and beyond. Honor them by honoring those who still serve, and those who will. Most of all, pray for their families for their sacrifice is a living one that lasts a lifetime.

God is watching over America!
May He continue to Bless her and our FREEDOM!
