Today we remember the service men and women... think about that word... SERVICE. For veterans, that word meant thinking about the world through selfless eyes. You serve the guy next to you in the fighting hole, trying desperately to ensure he gets home to his family so he can watch his kids grow up. You serve him by swearing to God that you would rather sacrifice yourself than to have his family mourn his infinite absence. SERVICE extends to the people back home too. That service is acting as a barrier between the haunting images, carnage, and realities of the world so that children have a decent shot at growing up without realizing the atrocities occurring in the world around them. The most interesting thing is identifying the void that is left, and the guilt you must bear, when you safely return home and exit the military. It is hardly paralleled in the civilian world.
On Veteran's Day we will remember ALL veterans. We will visualize Arlington National Cemetery, and we will remember that men and women of the armed forces stand between the enemies of the United States and the beds of our children. Those veterans are taking their own lives. There is no one reason. There are many reasons. And this matter is serious.
