When we were forced to cancel a vacation or he couldn’t attend a Christmas party, he would say, “I’m sorry” and follow up with, “It’s my duty.”
When he came home black and blue and exhausted I would say, “Enough, I don’t want you doing this anymore.” He would hug me and say, “It’s my duty.”
When he called me on his way home from Sierre Leone, I cried and told him that I was worried and he shouldn’t have taken that trip. He said, “Honey, it’s my duty, I love you and see you soon.”
My husband has dedicated his life to serving this country and defending the United States Constitution that allows us to live with the many freedoms we have today.
On May 1, 2014, the Port of Kingston demanded that I, my husband and our employees give up our Freedom of Speech in order to operate at the port. I didn’t agree. Who has the right to demand anyone, let alone a United States veteran, give up their rights?
I would take this stand again.
