Tribute to the troops in Afghanistan
In case you missed it in one of my many very late night posts on facebook, I wanted to share this very moving tribute to the troops in Afghanistan. While it’s slightly old, and was originally made for specific soldiers who passed away, I think it can be generalized.
It is beautiful. While I heard of this “highway of heroes” phenomenon, to see it, finally, brought tears to my eyes. The music may have contributed as well.
Two scenes always get me: The row of police (OPP?) on the side of the highway (there must be at least 6 cars) and the guy standing on the median with his hand over his heart.
