As we gather with family and friends to celebrate the holidays and the coming new year, it is important that we remember the members of our armed forces who are spending this holiday season far from home and in harm's way. These thousands of heroes have family and friends they wish they could spend the holidays with. But they gave that up to ensure we are safe to do these things. So, when you have your delicious holiday dinner, when you sit by your Christmas tree in your warm home, when you bring in the new year, take a moment to remember and thank the thousands of selfless Americans who cannot.
I have included, below, a video of the music group, Kiss, entertaining the troops in Iraq. Take a moment to view it and give thanks to these brave men and women.
