Throughout history, we see many examples of American lives lost at battle to defend the freedoms for which we stand. There is one objective of the Armed Forces: to defend the United States of America. Men have been chosen to lead these brave soldiers based on their wisdom, their skill and their ability to carry out the objective. Pray for these brave men wearing the uniform. And pray that our President does not destroy what so many have paid the ultimate price in defending.
