A Soldier and a Friend

While in the fraternity at Baker, our Chapter Advisor was a "weekend warrior", spending his free time learning to be a better soldier with few thoughts of ever having to call on this knowledge. Recently, Tony left for his third tour in the Middle East, doing his part to make the world a safer place. I got this link today and thought it deserved its own post.

Not everybody will appreciate these videos as much as I do. You hear people all the time thanking soldiers for what they do, appreciative of their efforts. I think sometimes it just takes knowing someone before that really sinks in. God bless people like Tony who leave behind a wife, three kids, and a successful business to travel thousands of miles to the most undesirable of locations for the most undesirable of professions for people like us. We could all use a few more friends like him :: aa
