StumbleLetter: Veteran moved by child’s caring words
Friday, Feb. 20, 1998 | 10:59 a.m.
You couldn't help getting your eyes wet when you read it. I cherish my card and the young child who made it, and had to reflect back on my past as a soldier. Somehow, I could not remember once in my life where anyone ever appreciated me for my being a military soldier. It's refreshing to have a precious moment like this to remember.
