I thank you both for the poems. I was in Shield and my closest friend, my brother, is there now. He is the SAW gunner on a transport. He has now completed 45 missions, safely thank God. I know I speak for both of us and many others when I say all we want is to be appreciated. Just to know that the ones we serve think of us is more than enough. Don't buy me a drink, don't thank me, just think of my brother(s). Thanks again.
