Guys like this is why I went SF. My heroes don't wear football or baseball uniforms. They wear the uniform of my country's warriors. They wore it, tattered, at Valley Forge. They wore it at Gettysburg. They wore it at a thousand anonymous battlefields. And they wore it at Son Tay. They wore it for me, and those who came after me.
It seems that sitting down to breakfast with a hero like the CSM, or buying him a drink is too small a tribute, yet it seems even this is something that I am too small to attempt.
Thankfully men like this exist.
