As I Lay me down to sleep

As I lay in bed at night I cry. I cry for every one of our service member who gave their all in battle. I cry for the wives, for the parents, for their children, I cry for their friends. I cry for every service member that has had to escort a Winged Hero home. For every man who has had to hand that flag to a grieving widow or mother. The pilot who has to fly them home, the drill guard that has to accept their body.  When one of our heroes gains their wings, there are so many more people affected by it besides that service members family and friends. I just wanted to take a moment to stop and think of every one whose life is touched by the saddening news of a Fallen Hero. God Bless America. Home of the free BECAUSE of the Brave.
In memory of all the Heroes that gave their all.
