A real-life hero

Here is a story we can all appreciate, about a real-life hero. It brought tears to my eyes.
'Grown men began to weep': Wounded soldier awakens in hospital to make 'salute seen around the world' - U.S. News (http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/10/15/20980647-grown-men-began-to-weep-wounded-soldier-awakens-in-hospital-to-make-salute-seen-around-the-world?lite)

quirky, Thank you for posting this. I have a friend back in Chicago where I live whose husband has been in Afghanistan since May, and he will be there for another 8 months. My friend said this has been the toughest deployment for them, especially since they have a 4 year old daughter. Let's all keep the troops stationed overseas in our thoughts and prayers, especially as the holiday season approaches.
