Find a Veteran. And Thank Him.
12 minutes to change your thinking.
"You may fly over a land forever.
"You may bomb it, atomize it, and wipe it clean of life.
"But if you desire to defend it, protect it, and keep it for civilization, you must do this on the ground.
"The way Roman legions did ... by putting young men into the mud."
--T.R. Fehrenbach, This Kind of War
"When the Air Force flies over, it's important. It's a show of force.
"When the Navy steams up, it's important. It's a deterrent.
"When the Army plants its boots on the ground ... it's control."
After you watch it ... find a veteran, and thank him.
