Im sure I was one of millions who shed tears for Army Ranger Cory Remsburg during last nights State of the Union address. We all need to remember that for every Cory, there are hundreds of others with wounds that we cannot see with our eyes. Being former Air Force (I use quotes because even though I was in from 83 to 87, everyone in service today are still my brothers and sisters!), I have a standing policy to offer to buy coffee for someone in uniform whenever Im in Starbucks. Its a small gesture, but considering that the suicide rate for wounded warriors is at 24%, a small gesture of kindness can go a long way. I salute people like Philip Strambler and Tucker Smallwood who work tirelessly every day to ensure that our wounded warriors and their families are not forgotten. As Forest Gump said, thats all I have to say about that.
