Giving Thanks
History always has a sense of repeating itself and, unfortunately, those to whom we respond to help, serve, and protect often come up on the short end of the stick. The night before Thanksgiving, I always have an eerie feeling in my gut when working the night tour because of the kids home from college who are out partying, socializing, and having mini-reunions. Luckily, many times the tour is quiet and nothing unusual occurs, but then there are those memorable events that will forever be etched into your mind on an occasion that should be for family and giving thanks.
