Santa Wore Combat Boots is a story about a family, especially the widow, trying to deal with getting on with life after the death of her husband in combat. With so many US families dealing with the issues of deployment, this was a story to show how deep the loss of a loved one can cause a family to suffer. It was written with compassion and understanding of deep grief and offers hope to anyone who takes the time to read about Emma and her two children.Jake the male soldier who served with her husband kept his promise to take care of Larry's family if anything happened to Larry. He moved next door to her and helped her every chance he could. He represents all that is good in commitment of our soldiers that serve our wonderful country.The story brought the joy of Christmas to life and also showed the tears of missing a loved one for a wonderful Christmas story about the spirit of Christmas.
