25 Soldier Affirmations for Memorial Day

Today is the day we remember those who sacrificed self for country – for us. Millions still serve today. We can all hope and work for a world where might is measured by human attainment and not force of arms. For now, I think it behooves us to appreciate what these people do for us.

Here are 25 affirmations for soldiers. I originally created this list for a Twitter friend who requested them back in 2010.
