What's Great About America

What's great about America is the men and women selflessly serving in the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Coast Guard. These are our American heroes.

Not the greedy, money-hungry, I'm-better-than-you, lying, follow-the-leader, sterotypes that run the country these heroes protect.

To our heroes:

God Bless You and keep you safe. May He put a shield around you until you come marching home. Let every man that could not stand up for his country stand aside when these heroes come your way. (This includes those on Capitol Hill.)

For there is no greater gift of love than to lay down your life for a friend.

Wake Up, America. THESE are our heroes.

Thank you to each and every one.
