Hello, fellow Armed Citizen.

I began passing a Jeep Liberty on the freeway yesterday, and I noticed a USMC sticker in their rear window. I grinned, but as I squinted to read the sticker opposite of it, my grin quickly turned to tears. It was a sticker of two dog-tags that said "MY SON, MY HERO. KIA IRAQ 2009".

I felt like I'd just been kicked in the gut. I was enjoying sunshine and an open road, and it hit me hard like a ton of bricks that the reason why I even had a day to enjoy was because of fearless Americans like the Marine to whom that sticker was dedicated.

This, and every issue of the Armed American Report is dedicated to the men and women who have sacrificed so much to bring us the freedoms we enjoy.

God bless each and every one of them, and to them I say: Thank You.

Yup.  The same place that all good Marines go.  Garrison duty in Heaven.

I like to think they're who guard the gate.

These stories really hit home when you realize they are doing the job while we are sitting on the sideline taking for granted that we are being protected by good men we don't even know.
