Yes sir, let's also remember the CBP officers working the holidays at Air, Sea and Land ports of entry, and the Border Patrol working out in the boonies during these troubled times. My best to all First Responders.

Merry Christmas and God Bless.

These thoughts exactly. Just because someone carries it well, doesn't mean it isn't heavy.

Thanks for bumping this OP! Well said! I’ve spent 4 Christmas’ deployed away from my family (luckily while all the kids were young). We try to give back randomly when we can and help our kids understand the real reason for the season.

Looks like I made it through my shift several years ago!!!! Holidays were really strange. Either it was really quiet, or one disaster after another. Gratitude to all first responders and military!!!

Thank you for this, Tim.

It’s great to slow down and reflect on what’s really important, especially this time of year.

Merry Christmas to all
