While watching the Virginia Tech vs. Georgia Tech game, I saw this commercial. All veterans and active duty members eat FREE at Applebee’s tomorrow! Be sure to share this with your friends.

To all veterans and active duty members - Thank you for all you do!

While you carry a $450 purse, she carries a 45lb rucksack. While you shop with your girlfriends, she cleans her rifle with her Battle Buddies. When you wear heels, she wears her combat boots. Instead of the make-up that you wear on your face to make yourself look pretty, she paints her face for camoflauge. You kiss your husband and kids goodbye for the day, she kisses hers goodbye for the year. Don’t forget about the Woman in Uniform.

Thank you to all the veterans and to the people who are currently serving our country to fight for our freedom!

The night before the burial of her husband 2nd Lt. James Cathey of the United States Marine Corps, killed in Iraq, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the casket, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. The Marines made a bed for her, tucking in the sheets below the flag. Before she fell asleep, she opened her laptop computer and played songs that reminded her of “Cat”, and one of the Marines asked if she wanted them to continue standing watch as she slept.”I think it would be kind of nice if you kept doing it,” she said. ”I think that’s what he would have wanted”.
