Sometimes you just have to be with the one who makes you smile, even if it means waiting

If the Army and the Navy ever look on heaven's scenes, they will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines

I can't quit thinking about Sgt. DeYoung and the family he left behind.  Every one's heart should be heavy when they hear his story.  The really heartbreaking thing of it all is that his story is happening everyday.  A Marine gave his life, the ultimate sacrifice.  He gave his life for you and I.  I posted his story on my facebook, but I don't know how many people really grasp what they read or if they even took the time to read it.  I mean do they understand that he was a husband, father, son, nephew, grandson, brother, and friend to someone?  He isn't a nobody and he died for complete strangers.  Strangers who probably just glance over his story and don't think much of it.  I don't mean to come off as aggressive or negative, and I hope I have it all wrong.  If you watch the video I posted, you can hear the sobbing.  I can only imagine how his wife feels.  A military wife's deepest fears are her reality.  There aren't any magical healing words for that kind of situation, and even time will never completely heal that kind of wound.  Please people, realize freedom is not free.  Sgt. DeYoung is a hero in every kind of way.
