My husband has been an active duty Sailor for 15 years. He is a 1st Class Petty Officer Currently aboard a destroyer, The USS Mason. (For the United States Navy) He has only been out to sea for 31 days and won't be home until sometime in the spring. I can't say when. His little boys miss him terribly. My husband loves serving his Country. I'm reminded daily that our Freedom isn't free. I pay dearly every minute that I am seperated from my husband. I am proud of this man for being so dedidcated to his fellow sevice men and those that served before him. It takes a special man to leave every thing you love behind to fight for what you beleive in. That is the greatest sacrafice all of our Soldiers and Sailors can make for their Country.
