One of Tanya's favorite quotes is:"Pride and Freedom She lays in her bed, pretending to be asleep, waiting for her father to come home. Waiting for the sound of heavy combat boots to come upstairs. He comes in and kisses her good night, careful not to wake her up. She can now go to sleep, because she knows that her world is safe. Everyday she watches him walk out that door with his uniform on.

ot like it when he leaves, but she lives with it. She knows that she can't control his fate. Once he puts on that uniform she knows that God will protect him. This child is different, because her father is a soldier. She carries his rucksack, she knew the proper way to salute by the age of five. She can look at a uniform and tell you what rank the person is. She has more responsibilities than any other kid her age. She was not given these responsibilities. She takes them on to help her mother when her father is gone. She may not like war, but she accepts it because she understands that war means protecting freedom. She also knows that her father is proud to protect freedom and that gives her comfort. When her father died wearing his uniform, she felt great sorrow. But not because she lost him, but because the world lost a hero, a soldier that loved his country and his countrymen. She still lays in bed waiting for the sound of those heavy combat boots. But in her mind she can still hear them coming up the stairs, giving her peace because she knows that her world is safe because her father gave his life for her freedom and the freedom of others. Tanya L. HecklerA proud Ranger's daughter".
