That song is very powerful, but there's alot that people don't understand. #1 Soldiers are not ignorant, nor are they stupid. I remember on Sept. 11th, 2001, I looked my 2 year old daughter in the eye, and turned to my wife. Shortly thereafter I joined the Army. That was a choice I made. There are others who can't find a job, or who are struggling to pay for school, we all have our reasons for raising our hands. The thing you don't see is what's beyond that point. We train together. We live together. We are proud of what we do. Sometimes it sucks, but we suck it up and drive on because of the people standing to your right and your left. I don't fight for George Bush, let alone agree with all of his policies, I do however soldier on because the parents of the soldiers in my squad depend on me to bring them home alive, and I will do everything in my power to do that. Because if one day my own child decides to stand up in the ranks, I will depend on his/her leaders to bring them home. If I'm ordered to go, I'll go. But If I do go, I'll be proud to be there alongside some of the greatest Americans to ever live. <BR/><BR/>-A young SGT in the United States Army.
