Why is it ,I , a 44 year old Marine vet am moved to damn near tears by this vid?
Because the things that matter to us will always spark real emotion.
We all talk about CoX like it was the game that affected us, but it never was - it's what the game represented.
Heroic struggle.
Overcoming impossible odds.
Working together.
Forming bonds that matter in pursuit of a common goal.
Seems to me that a vet would be more affected by this than us civilians, since however many of us say, "We are heroes, this is what we do," all of that?
It's what folks like you actually
did.
So, you know - thanks. And happy Fourth.
