Please do. The more people see this, the better. I know that I spend so much time hearing truly awful things about our military and the mindset it drills into servicemen that seeing something like this completely breaks me. I needed the reminder that guys like this are--and always have been--out there. Maybe someone else will also find that as meaningful as I did.

And they say people without religion can't find beauty in the the world. That a humanist can't be spiritually moved.

Fuck that.

WOW. I am literally in tears. Incredible words from a man who truly understands what freedom is all about, and the cost.
Thanks for sharing.
