“Before I went into the military I knew everyone, and everyone knew me.. Before I left everyone I knew, and everyone I didn’t know said I was too handsome, too young. I wasn’t going to let that stop me.. I joined for my family.. for my friends..for the people I know.. and for the people I don’t.. Now, no one wants to see me.. no one wants to look at me.. and know one wants to know me..”
I want to see him & shake his hand for all he has done.
anyone who wouldnt want to be seen with this guy is a fucking asshole. he gave up what we didnt just to keep us safe
this man. i want to meet him, hug him, be there for him. i want to show him just how much i appreciate everything he gave up for, everything he lost, so that i could have the freedoms i have. if you dont support our troops, the men and women who serve for your rights, you should stand in front of them.
