our home is free because of the brave

Not our house (stimulus my foot) ...our home. "Oh say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, o'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave."
Veteran's Day in small-town Kansas. The photo is of the picture in our local newspaper today. We are free, so far, because of these brave fellow Americans. From our founding to Ft. Hood, freedom is not free. Thank you to those who served, and died, and are currently serving, to protect our freedom! Thank you to my granddads, their brothers, my dad and my Big Little Brother.
And by the way, there are 14 dead victims at Ft. Hood, not 13. One of the victims was pregnant.
