This American soldier is waiting on your screen while you decide what to have for dinner.
Maybe you just walked past the truck under a cover in your driveway. You have a whole evening ahead. When these men get ten free minutes, they do not go look at their own cars or sit on a porch. They spend that tiny sliver of time looking at a phone.
Play the video again and watch his face just before he asks you to follow. There is a tiny hesitation. He is wondering if anyone is actually listening on the other side of the world.
He is serving out there right now. The wind and the hours are long. The distance from home is a heavy thing to carry. He knows how easy it is to be forgotten when you are thousands of miles away.
He says a simple hello would put a smile on every face in his group. That is a small wish from American soldiers who are keeping watch while we sleep.
Do not let him wonder. Take a few seconds and leave a comment. Say thank you in your own words. 🫡
