Thanks, but although I am very grateful for being able to serve for 22 years, I am certainly NO hero. I never served in a combat zone or was even deployed, though I wanted to be. Just wasn't in the cards, I guess.
The ones who never came home are the heroes along with the mentally and physically wounded, though many survivors deny that label as they were doing a job for their country that they chose and knew the risks.
Your son is a hero, IMO. Hope he's doing well.
