Yesterday, I thought of my friend Kyle and my cousin Chaz, who are both in Afghanistan right now. I thought of my uncle, who's done tours in Iraq for Operation Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom; my grandfather, a Vietnam vet; my aunt, who served in the Air Force; Sgt. 1st Class Raymond Buchan, whose funeral I attended as part of the Patriot Guard in 2007; and Cpl. Jason Dunham, who sacrificed his life for his fellow soldiers and lived not too far from where I live. And of course, all the men and women serving here and abroad and the people we've lost.
