For the past 22 weeks I’ve been blessed to be surrounded by the most amazing Patriots the world has ever seen. I’ve seen them in the freezing cold and in the blistering heat. I’ve laughed with them, cried with them, ate with them, baptized three of them, celebrated birthdays and a 57th anniversary with one couple, and said goodbye for the last time to two of them. I’ve also seen their generosity displayed when one amongst us was in need, they opened their hearts and gave in abundance to that need. They are truly the cream of the crop, and not only America, but the world owes them the deepest respect and love, for they have went far above and beyond the call of duty.
