Moved to Tears

People ask me what it's like to be the parent of a young man who serves in Gaza I am proud of my son, who is doing what he believes in because there comes a time when we sacrifice - remember that word? for our country, for our people, for our dignity I am moved to tears. Tears of joy. My son is my hero.

a riveting and loving tribute to your heroic son. I agree...we've forgotten sacrifice in today's 'entitled' world. Hats off to your son. Thanks for these words today, Sara
