Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
-William Pitt, British Prime-Minister (1759-1806)

As they say "Freedom isn't Free," but how hard it is to remember the price while we enjoy the benefits.

Thanks for the link!

Kevin, it is a contrast between how career civilians in the U.S. live and experience their daily lives. Comfort, relative safety, routine, lacking little in any area, as opposed to the daily routine for thoseĀ  in combat operations over there. You certainly don't need me to get graphic. You, all of you, who have been in the dust and blood in behalf of those at home already know how great it is "back home". And it is that way because of what you and the veterans have done. That's the message. You've already got it.
Mac.

Thank you Mac.  I guess I'm lucky in that most of my co-workers are prior service, and we all are working to support the Warfighter everyday and we know it.

I hate photo bucket.

NMCI (Navy's Mismanagement of Computer Infrastructure or Navy Marine Corps Intranet) has it blocked along with any webmail (MSN, Yahoo, and GMail) so they only show up as the evil Red X at work but at home  it's OK. >:(

yes I had it relatively easy when I was in, and I still reflect upon it when my sorry ass is feeling sorry for itself. God Bless our Troops.

Wow.  It brought a tear to my eye.  I was in desert shield and storm.  It was different for me.  I was in artillery and never got shot
at.  But I do remember not washing myself or clothes for 25 to 30 days at a time.  We lived in tents and had logistics problems getting water.  So it was hard to justify using it for anything except drinking.  I also remember not having a tooth brush.  I'm proud of my service but still feel kinda guilty that I am not over there now.  I would like to say from the bottom of my heart "Thank's to every soldier who answer's the call to duty."

I haven't cried that hard in a while. But that really got to me.

God bless our troops and God bless America.
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington
