Poems From the Sand : Proving Press : 9781633374898 : 1633374890 : 24 May 2021 : First and foremost I would like to give a special thank you to the extraordinary wives of Chris Kyle and Shawn Thomas, two of my heroes. Without their stories I would have never been able to express my feelings toward our fallen brothers. I would also like to give a special thank you to all of our servicewomen and men stationed all over this great planet of ours. Your Sacrifice is appreciated. One more special thank you to the countless fallen brothers and sisters past and present who have sacrificed everything to ensure our way of life and future democracies around the world. Last but not least, to the readers of my book, without you this would have not even been possible.
