In response to my Thanksgiving column:

A friend just forwarded me your recent article praising our military and I wanted to say thank you. My husband deployed today and it’s difficult to stomach that he is fighting for a cause that many Americans are so harshly against and probably know very little about, other than the little that the media shows. My family is giving up being together for the holidays because it is our job to defend and serve our country. I feel like a lot of our countrymen, whose rights are fought for by our military families, do not appreciate nor acknowledge such sacrifices. Thank you for validating their fight. Thank you for remembering.
