Ladies and Gentlemen,
Many of you sit here and say to each other "Happy 4th!" without the full realization of what that means. To many of you it is just another holiday. I'm not saying that is something wrong in any way, it is well enough in my mind that you are celebrating the United State's independence in this holiday. But I came here today to inform you of something you really might not think about, which is understandable because of the busy schedules of what has become such a thriving world. Cheering as you see the fireworks and drink your beer the only thing that really comes to mind is the friends, family, and good times that surround you. Again I see nothing wrong with this, as I would be doing the same thing if I were there.
What I've come to say is simply this:
There are men and women, stationed all over the globe, staying up the long hours of every day and night. Fighting, Enforcing, Helping, Protecting, Watching, Guarding, and doing everything they can to make sure it is a safe night back home. There are no big celebrations to rejoice on this day, they simply keep working to ensure that this day stands proud as it always has and will.I'm not saying these men and women are better in any way. I only ask you to take a moment of your day to say a simple thank you. It means the world to them.
I know this is directed at the people of the United States of America, but the other countries have their forces too, so remember to say a thank you to them on your national holiday.
I ask one more thing of you; Do not politicize this, it is a thank you, it's not a debate.
