MAY God protect and guide our veterans today, and all days. We are grateful for their sacrifices and want to do what is right to help them. And may God help us end the age of foreign intervention. We pray that fewer men and women have to give as they have given and we vow to understand the causes of war better so that peace can rule.

Here is a little background on the type of soldier you used in your photo.  He is holding the iconic flashlight and .45 caliber pistol.  His face says he is about to enter.

They had to be volunteers.  Although I am not normally claustrophobic, I cannot imagine going into those horrifying tunnels.  I would have accepted any mission in exchange for that one.  I would not have fit anyway.  Only extreme anger or a gun to the head would have gotten me into those tunnels.  I hope all such men were given a major medal for doing it even once.
