I was at the Lowe's grocery store a few days ago when a retired master sergeant came up to me and placed this is in my hand.
He thanked me for my service.
You have no idea what these moments mean to me. I don’t find it necessary for people to thank me for my service because it’s my privilege but I do have endless gratitude for those who go out of their way to make sure we know we still matter.
Whether we see it or not, people are watching and listening.
Thank you so much, Master Sergeant Buick Mclamb of United States Marine Corps.
