In Memoriam, from Berlin

As I sit in Berlin, I am especially conscious of the many, many American servicemen who died here and did so much to not only protect our country from a crazy psychopath during WWII, but also liberated a huge number of people from the enormities and oppression that he caused. Today, in memoriam, I am grateful for all those Americans that have given their lives in our nation’s cause.
