One of my New Year’s resolutions is not to bore our readers with too many articles exalting the men and women serving our country in the military, especially those slugging it out in combat zones.
I don’t think I’ll be breaking my resolution if I succumb to showing just this one photo (above) that caught my attention this morning and which, in my opinion, reflects the dedication, loyalty and devotion to duty of our troops serving in Afghanistan, all in one image.
I wish them as Happy a New Year as possible, God Bless and come home safely soon.
