3. It's inspiring to see these men and women doing this.
Every time I feel like going back to bed out of frustration I'm going to remember these warriors and get my ass up and doing something constructive.

6. I am a vietnam vet's widow...
and when I see these warriors..it makes me weep, knowing they are maimed for life because of a war started by lies. Not to mention all the warriors, both male and female that never came home.
War..what is it good for? Certainly war not good for children and other living things. Certainly war is not good for innocent civilians blown up for being there. Certainly its not good for a nation that is bankrupt.
These are our children, our sons and daughters, our fathers and mothers, our sisters and brothers who's bodies were torn apart ...for what?
