Ok so as Im sitting here today I am reflecting about our soldier men and women who has served is serving and will serve our country.
I normally dont get emotional over the death of my uncle I never knew but his name was Bobby and he was killed while in training for the Army. I dont know exactly how or anything like that because he died before I was born. I know that my grandma and grandpa witnessed the worst thing that a parent could witness. I seen grandpa cry reading the last letter that he ever recieved from Bobby.
Now that my grandpa has passed I miss him dearly but he gave me something when I was just a little girl that will always be near and dear to my heart. It is my uncle Bobbys radio that he had where he was staying. I think Im going to take this out and spend some more time reflecting on what today is all about.
