If this doesn't bring it home
Its easy to forget on a minute by minute basis that there are hundreds of thousands of Americans out there every second doing their duty in Iraq and Afghanistan Then you read something like this short e-mail from a deployed soldier to his wife and you're right there with them... Wow.
Hope this inspires you to send a card, call a friend, or say a prayer for these brave men...
