Reflections of an old Soldier
#HispanicSuccessClub
In a world full of instant gratification, Social Media, and "What's In It For Me" thinkers there are still those who believe in to be in service of others, to conduct ourselves with honor, live with integrity and also, conducting ourselves with a sense of dignity and pride.

Introduction
Once in a while you will see an American Soldier in uniform at an Airport, a Train Station, in Church or in your city or town. And you will stop just for a moment and notice so many things. Don't you love it how children will stand in awe with eyes open wide and innocently ask "What is that?" And a parent, an adult or an older child will respond with admiration, that's an American Soldier.
There is no denying that there is something about an American Soldier. She, or he walks a little smoother, carries her, or himself a little more erect, has a palpable fire in her or his heart to be the best, do her or his best; and to lead, to follow the leader or to get out of the way.
Soldiers have refined the art of using their proven expertise with the tools of their trade with pin- point accuracy in order to complete the mission correctly and the best way possible.
Decide to do Something Awesome
The fact is our Country needs volunteers to prove her or himself qualified by undergoing mental aptitude testing, physical examination, drug test and criminal background check. Our country needs warriors with a strong will, physically fit and mentally tough. So that they can be trained and prepared to serve side- by -side with like minded warriors who also stand ready to defend our nation.
Tradition and Pride. Our nation's Armed Forces are at their core Guard the American way of life and have taken a solemn oath to defend the Constitution of the United States. The only higher calling which can compare is to love the Lord with all our heart all our strength and all our soul. This oath calls us to serve unto death.
Dare to face your doubts and fears. Somewhere inside of our body there...
