Leeann Tweeden Instagram – Today I’ve thought about all of the people in my life that have served our country. That includes my father who served in Vietnam, my husband who is still serving and many other family members and dear friends that have all worn the uniform. Today the country remembers them, but I think about them every day. It’s a tiny percentage of Americans who volunteer to put on the uniform and serve.
I am grateful for each and every one of you. If you gave a few years or dedicated your life to service, THANK YOU.
I thought about joining at one point in my life. I didn’t, but that guilt of not serving my country led me to do all I could for them. I did 16 USO Tours, 14 of those I visited the Middle East. I spent Thanksgivings and Christmas Holidays with our troops. I visited wounded warriors in the hospitals at home and abroad. I worked with charities to raise money and awareness. And I always wanted the family members to know we appreciate them and we care. Families serve right along with their loved one and the burdens often fall on them.
I am proud of all the men and women who have worn the uniform and all my entertainer friends I’ve traveled with over the years who feel the same!
