I am asked often why I work so much on veterans things. My answer is usually just, why wouldnt you? Ive never been good at keeping the names of all the Generals and the dates of all the battles clear. And I served in the Air Force, but at time of peace. So what draws me too it? The amazing trust I have been given by hundreds of veterans who have shared their story with me, and told their story through me. Every time they describe a memory of war I get to see it come to life in their eyes. And when it gets too painful for them to remember, I watched those memories roll down their cheeks. They have seen things, and done things before they were 20 that no teenager should ever see, or do. Those are the memories they keep locked away, the ones that try to reappear in nightmares. God Bless the men and women who go to war when called. This commercial makes me think of them.
