Folks don’t appreciate the fact that every minute of every day, some 19 year old young man is standing watch in some far away place. It most likely be in a hostile environment where his life is in constant danger. he will see things that most Americans can’t imagine. He will carry experiences for a life time most won’t ever hear about. If he is fortunate and comes home, he goes on to marry, work, have a family and live his life. Look around, he is probably right next to you.
Wow, that video made me cry.. My thoughts go to the Nelson Family.. GOD BLESS AMERICA… Thank you Travis Nelson for serving our great nation… May God Bless your family…

Great job, William! The video was extremely personal yet professional, and what a nice way to allow Ernest Ward to be a special part of the “remembrance” by presenting it to Travis’ family. You are a team player! Thanks for using your talents like this!
