Book Reviews of Final Salute: A Story of Unfinished Lives
Book Review: Tugs at your heart and brings tears to your eyes.
Summary: 5 Stars
Mr. Sheeler introduces us to the finest men and women on this planet. America's greatest heroes who are found in the ranks of the American military. Major Steve Beck, United States Marine Corps, has a mission that frightens every United States Marine. His duty is marked with pride and grief, honor and sadness.
The book eloquently tells us of their ultimate sacrifice and honor. How truly wonderful and blessed we are in America because of the bravery, honor, courage, duty, sacrifice, devotion, dedication, patriotism and commitment our military personnel and their families make to each other and this great nation of ours.
How so many brave men and women find courage in defending this nation, when others run away from committment or sense of duty. How pride can attempt to overcome grief, maybe for just a fleeing moment. How our military makes a difference when others just talk of doing so. How noble are the men and women of the United States Armed Forces and their loved ones.
The picture of Mrs. Katherine Cathey draped over the casket of her husband, Second Lieutenant James Cathey, United States Marine Corps, brings tears to my eyes each and every time I view it. So many pictures in this book also bring to light the love and honor of these men and women.
I am not ashamed to say I weep with pride and sadness of all their stories. Again, the pictures are riveting and their stories are compelling. We can never bring back to life those who have paid the ultimate price, but we can continue to honor their memory and their families for ever. Their un-finished lives will be finished in heaven.
MAY GOD BLESS THE MEN AND WOMEN (AS WELL AS THEIR FAMILIES) OF THE UNITED STATES MILITARY........

Summary: 5 Stars
People need to read this book, then reflect on how we should require our government to provide more aid for the families experiencing the loss of loved one.
