“I traveled to Walter Reed Army Medical Center and talked with some of our soldiers who dedicated their lives to protect our Nation and gave their hearts, souls and bodies to the cause of freedom. Today, there are insurgent attacks almost every day. Iraq has descended into a deadly civil war, and almost every American has become familiar with the term IED and the deadly impact they have on the young men and women that we send to fight for us in this war. The terms of war...have all become commonplace. We hear that another helicopter was shot down or that three more soldiers died today in Iraq, and soon enough we become numb to the true impact that this war is having on our troops and their families. These young men and women represent true honor, courage and selflessness.”
