“One day, when on a field of battle whether distant or here in America, I hope and pray that when we go to battle I know that you supported my choice, otherwise my venture means nothing, since its whole purpose was to protect you. The only sure thing, even if I don't make it back, like those who give it all, you'll know that you're the last thing that flashed through my mind, all the times we spent together, the laughs we shared, and this is why I had to fight, because times like that won't continue to happen for the countless people after me without those willing to make that sacrifice.”
