Once again the conversation changed to current day when I asked how many celebrities we could name who enlisted for the current wars. Sadly, only one name could be answered by all in the room. Pat Tillman. Tillman turned down a $3.6 million contract with the Cardinals to enlist in the Army. That patriotism is so rare. He offered and eventually gave his life for his country.
Why is Pat Tillman so amazing? He was an atheist. For those of you who do not comprehend what is so special about that, he offered and gave his life, the only life that he believed he would ever have, to defend our country.
