I have jumped out of my skin quite a few times when a sudden roar came close over my head. I then turn my head up and smile. My son made it home safe and sound from deployment. Some of his friends haven't. We don't appreciate our freedom near enough. Teach your children why those honorable guys are out there training. It's so they don't have to be fighting a war over your head in your own country. Next time they won't be scared, they will be proud. Sorry, I don't mean to sound "preachy" but when you hear and see what the children in those war torn countries endure every day it makes you more aware of the things we take for granted here in the USA.
