{9-11}

It's been a sad 24 hours for a lot of Americans and hopefully a lot of people around the world.  Yesterday was the anniversary of the tragic attacks on our nation from senseless violent groups.  They devastated our nation but did not break us.  As Americans we are proud of our nation and stronger than ever.  We can never forgot the moment where we were when we heard about the World Trade Centers being hit, when the Pentagon was hit, when the flight went down in the fields of Pennsylvania.   As we rebuild what was torn down on the NYC skyline, we must remember all the victims and their families.  We also remember those Americans killed in those violent attacks on the US Embassy in Libya.  We pray for peace in the souls of their families.

9-11 Memorial

Myself and many, many others remember the events in a very different way.  Every time a member of our military must be sent away from their friends. family and the country they serve to the vast lands of the Middle East, we remember why they are doing what they do.  The War on Terrorism began years ago and our loved ones serve for that very reason.  To make an impact on terrorist groups around the world.  A lot of people are against the war, and, to a degree, we (as military wives and families) are too.  No part of our hearts want our husbands and loved ones to be sent into direct fire from terrorism groups.  I have an undying gratitude for each and every member of the military for their commitment to our nation.  To sacrifice their lives, literally, for my safety.  

I want to reflect on those tragic events by personally thanking the men and women of USMC 11.2 FWD, especially the members that created the GSMT Co..  Also my personal gratitude to those who have served and are currently serving in the fight on terrorism.  ((Thinking of and praying for you Jim!))  

Thank you to all my fellow wives and family members of these awesome Marines, I'll never forget all the kind words and support.  I love all of you in a very special way.  As David would say, "'Rah!  Kill!".

Thank you David.
