This song really hits my heart. My grandfather was in the Gulf War. Every night I would write him a letter. He said that he showed all his friends all of my letters. When they pronounced him MIA, I was devistated, but I kept sending letters. Finally I heard from him about 6 months later. This is what It said:
Dear Grandson,
Sorry to keep you waiting. I was riding in a convoy headed to somewhere outside of Baghdad, to fix a broken radio transister when we were captured. They held us for 5 months, until US troops stormed in the building. When I got back John and Sam showed me the pile of letters you sent. It took me two weeks to read them all. Then I started writing this letter. When I get home we will do everything that we used to do.
