Aren't you glad that someone VOLUNTEERS to do this so you don't HAVE to do it. I've never heard David complain and I am so proud of him. I am blessed to be in love with the kind of man that loves his country and countrymen so much that he takes a job that moves his family far from grandparents, family and friends so he can fill a desperate need of safety for you.
When 9/11 happened, my husband didn't complain about it, blame it on the President, worry privately to friends. HE STOOD UP and was issued a gun and spent 30 months in a hot, harsh, dangerous desert to ENSURE that this wouldn't happen again.
We don't get paid the big bucks. He could easily double his salary by getting out of the military and working privately. He knows he will be deployed again... soon. But he is a good man and a good soldier and he does all of this FOR YOU.
This is the story for men and women all across the country. They sacrifice things you don't even think of just so you don't have to sacrifice ANYTHING. Now our lawmakers want him to continue sacrificing but this time without pay for an indefinite amount of time. You know what? They will. They won't quit. You know why? Because it's more than money to them.
However, you should not stand by and let this happen. You should email your congressmen and your President that YOU elected and tell them you're disappointed and ashamed. Stand up for your military who have stood up for you time and time again. Don't let this happen. Not on your watch.
