End the Madness
Spread the Knowledge, Stop the War
A Letter Home
It is true that fighting for our country is a great honor, if not the most nobile and respectable honors. Yet how we portray the fighting as amazing and completely worth it all is all wrong. War may have its benefits, you can fight for freedom, you can fight for justice and the defense of your people and country. But you must remember the torment that comes with the war aswell. We must not forget that many men do not come home, too many mothers can no longer see their sons and pride them for their heroic efforts. So yes, going to the war for your country is a tremeandous sacrafice which shall be recognized by giving honor and gratitude , yet it is a frightening world to enter which leaves death and destruction. I miss you mother, and I will fight for my country with pride, but do not forget what I have said to you please.
With love and blessings,
Your Soldier Mike
