Some come home to a hero's welcome

Others who serve come home to silence, their families not even aware of what they have suffered.

A Spec Ops soldier knows he fights, and dies in the shadows. It is not about glory, fame or recognition. They do what they do because of what matters, stopping the enemies of freedom and this country anywhere they can. It isn't about the Rambo syndrome, that sort of attitude will get you real dead real quick. They have to work in the shadows, The few who do it, are few against many.

Many of them who pay the price somewhere God isn't looking don't have their names on a stone slab in some national cemetary. But there are some who remember, the regulars here know of who I speak.

What is more important to you alcaray? Your daily dose of three minute sound bites with vidieo, or some guy living to come home to his kids? And that, whether you believe it or not, is the point.

For me there is no choice there.
