These are the signs that I made for Rob's return from Iraq. The following letter is one that was left on our front porch a couple weeks after Rob's return.
Dear Soldier,
I am a student at K-State and I walk by your house quite often to get to my classes. That is when I saw the large banner that your family had put on the fron porchwelcoming you home. That is why I am writing this to you. In this day and age, it getsharder and harder support this country that I and obviously you love dearly. The lack of support for what you guys do and what you have done for us is ridiculous. I get sick andtired of people uniting for ten minutes and then going right back to stabbing each other in the back. That is why I am so thankful for hte job you guys do. No matter where you were and what kind of war you fought in, you helped keep this country free. You were willingand ready to give your life for us, and really, me. To quote the Bible "There is no greater love than to give of ones life for a friend." You do not even know the millions of the people you fought for, yet you did it anyway. That, my friend, takes the ultimate selflessness and courage. I just wanted to tell you that no matter what the media or anyone says, there aremillions of us out here that are proud and very greatful to have you watching our backs. We will never be able to repay you, and I know it is a drop of water in a lake, but please take this cigar as a token of appreciation.
Thank you and God Bless you and all the troops out there fighting to keep us safe and free.
Signed,
A Humble Patriot of the U.S.A.
