Among Those Who Died For You Last Week – Week 26 [VIDEOS]
When a soldier pays the ultimate price and lays down his or her life protecting the freedom of our great country it goes largely unnoticed; until now. Every week I post names of those “who gave all” so I can pay my respects and remember why I have the freedom I emjoy. New videos have been added this week and if you have a video you would like to see on this post next week please bring it to my attention. You have full authority to share this weekly post anywhere you like.
