Today I was at church with a good friend of mine, and the preacher was talking welcoming people who got back, and one of them was a soldier who fought in Irak for the last 2 months.

EVERYBODY. And I say EVERYBODY stood up and started applauding.

That is how proud the Americans are on their soldiers!

This is what we miss in Belgium. The feeling of a community.

I love this country.

PS: Thanks to Joe for always picking me up!
