My thought on the first quote was not depressing but insperation. AND GOD BLESS AND THANK YOU TO ALL THE FALLEN (SILENT) (FRIENDS) SOLDIERS! You will never hear or read this but hopefully one day I will shake your hand and give you a hug and thank you for what you did and sacrificed for me to be free and have the life I have. So many times we are over focused on winning we forget the now silent sacrifices made to win the battles.
