This will make you stop and think.

A soldier in Iraq with his "tiny plot of grass" in front of his tent.
Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked his wife to send him dirt (U.S. soil), fertilizer and some grass seed. When the men of the squadron have a mission they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil to bring them good luck.
If you notice, he is even cutting the grass with a pair of a scissors. Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and think about the little things that we take for granted.
Upon receiving this, please say a prayer for our soldiers that give and give (and give up) so unselfishly for us.
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!

Tom,

Thanks for sharing the story! My dad was a career Marine and my brother was a career Army. His son, my nephew, just left for Paris Island a couple of weeks ago.
