Overall, look where Kosovo is today. Free and democratic elections were held. Infra-structure is being built. Crime has gone down exponentially. Hope is viable.
Nothing happens overnight.
I hope the people back home can at least begin to recognize the sacrifices the men and women of our military have made, alongside of other nations' forces, to help bring this troubled province as far as it has come. Perezic is at the end of her tour, and will shortly be home with her family. I thank God that they are there, and am so much more appreciative of them and my country because of this experience. It has profoundly touched me. I am proud to have worn the uniform, and walked the walk with them, danced the dance.
