HI Dorie... taking our freedoms for granted is a sure fire way to start losing them. Your quote says it all:

"Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it.  It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it."

Freedom comes with a cost.  Of my graduating class from Annapolis, 3 have died (two in helo crashes, another at the Pentagon on 9/11) directly in service.  Another shipmate from my 2nd sea tour was later killed on the Cole. Even during peacetime, there's a heavy price to be paid.
