My son was a year old when I remember the first plane hitting the first building. By the time I made it to my friend’s house, the second plane had hit the next building.
And that’s when something was triggered inside of me. I thought to myself…. As long as I am alive, I will do anything to protect my babies, my family, and my friends from ever having to suffer from another terrorist attack here in America. I would rather bomb their cities and fight on their soil than to ever have my loved ones suffer through another 9/11.
My birthday the following year, I took an oath to protect this country from all enemies… foreign AND domestic. I have seen war torn countries during my time of service. I would never want to see that environment in my beloved country. I will honor that oath until the day I die.
America is not perfect. It has lots of flaws and flawed people running it… but there is no place I would rather live. I would rather stay here and create the change I want to see. I pray we all do our part to help with that change.
May we never forget. 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙
