Nothing means more to those in harm's way than the knowledge that their country appreciates their sacrifices and those of their families.

Across the country military families are facing dire financial circumstances due to longer than expected tours of duties. They are being penalized for their patriotism - no one should have to choose between doing right by their country and doing right by their families.

All soldiers who serve their country and put their lives at risk need to know that if something happens to them, their families will be well taken care of. That's the bond we have with our military men and women and their families.

I take care of military families. Their sacrifices are very real.

The point of serving your country is not to do your own thing or to go rogue, but to work as part of the process.

I think there are many ways to serve your country.

Do every single thing you can to protect yourself, your family, and your country.

Let those only return to their homes who are called by the imperative duties which they owe to their families, and those who by their glorious wounds have deserved the credit of their country.

There is nothing nobler than risking your life for your country.

I feel my family's needs are a priority. I'm not comfortable with the idea of serving the many and ignoring my family.
