This is to all veterans. I honor you and everything you do. My great uncle was suppose to come home for Christmas a few years ago. I was so excited to finally meet him. He was shipped out to some place, I didn't know where at the time because he couldn't say. At least an hour after he was shipped out, We got a call. My mom answered the phone. Suddenly, she was crying. So hard. I never saw my mother cry that much ever in my life like this. Instantly, I knew what happened. my great uncle, who I was so excited to see, stepped on a grenade. We all cried on that Christmas morning. I didn't open my presents for a few weeks. All I did was just sit inthe corner of my house and cry. One day, I decided to open up my presents. The first one I opened was from my great uncle. Inside, Was a dog tag. A dog tag that said, " My Little Angel " And some random numbers. From that day forward, I've worn that dog tag everywhere. And i still do..
