## Caption

In January of 2009, I had the opportunity to go to Iraq and visit troops at over 20 Army bases. My eyes were opened wide to a way of life I didn’t know. So many honorable and respectful men and women denying themselves and serving their country. .
One soldier had a tattoo on his arm that I asked to look at. It was scripture:
.
“Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:13
.
He had lost a friend and was willing to make the same commitment for his fellow soldiers. .
Let’s remember to take a few minutes today to honor our brave men and women that have given their lives so that we may continue to live ours in freedom.
