It was 3 days until I was supposed to go to my husbands graduation,he was graduating from boot camp.May of 2001 he had enlisted to join the Army.And it was my worst fear for him to be sent somewhere to fight in a war but,when I spoke to him he was not afraid he was ready to go fight for his country and the people in it.Just like all those brave people who rose up to help people in need it makes me proud to live in a country where people will sacrifice their own lives to help and save others.When I watched the tradegies unfold on television all I had was sympothy for those who lost their loved ones and I was worried how America would bounce back after a tradegy like this but everyone pulled together as one and now I beleive if terrorist tries something like this again America won't take it lying down and I feel safe with people like my husband fighting for us.
