War and it is not for the faint of heart, We walk the battlefields with pride, see our blood seep into foreign soil and do not waiver. Through it all our dream of a free country where we can return home with pride and humility for the grand plan that gave us this wonderful freedom to live the lives we have chosen in the beautiful land we call America has not faded nor tarnished so I say to you “GOD Bless America”! ~Efrain Ruiz JR.
