As I marched up the green mile today I watched preparations being made for a class to graduate this night who will continue a tradition of service set forth over a hundred years ago. A tradition you upheld and gave your all for. As I think to complain about the pain in my calf and the weight on my back, I think about how you would give anything to trade places with me. I will do all that I can to take advantage of the opportunity sacrifices like yours have given me. I will strive to live in a way that will honor your sacrifice and uphold the traditions of service and commitment to life as you have. Gone but never forgotten.
