Both of my grandfathers fought in WWII. They each received medals and purple hearts, and had courage that I cant even begin to fathom or attain. Ive had close friends, men and women, serve in the military. Some never made it home. Some of you are in the military currently or just got out - some of you I know personally and some who Ive yet to meet, and Im humbled you are fans of the music I make. I want you to know I am a fan of you as human beings. Like my grandfathers, you have strength and courage I cant comprehend. Regardless of the politics, what the talking heads on the news say, or what my or anyones personal feelings on the current and past wars of our country may be - or on war in general - the truth is that you put your life on the line every day to allow me the chance to sit here and write this. To allow all of us to live our journey to the fullest. For that you deserve the best. Im sorry to have only said this on the day of the year thats set aside to honor you. Im sorry our government fumbles so much to give you the care youve more than earned. You deserve to be appreciated and revered for the truly unrivaled badasses that you are on a daily basis. You inspire me and everyone you know to become better versions of ourselves. Thank you for literally everything.
