TO HONOR THE LOVE OF MY LIFE

To a special veteran who never was given the honor he deserved. He served in an undeclared and unpopular war. He had to leave a young wife and law school. The only honor given was by the government in the form of recognition and awards. Returning home from Vietnam on Christmas morning he walked off the military base, a civilian, greeted only by his wife and brother-in-law.
                                                                              
He served his country with HONOR and so he continues to live his life as one of service to his family, community, and church.
                                                
Sweetheart, you are a wonderful veteran. I am sorry the United States people didn’t recognize the service you had given. But I recognized and love you all the more for your willingness to answer to serve when called.
