At least one family of a fallen soldier to tell them how grateful we are; a missionary who serves in a country closed to the gospel; Christian musician Sara Groves (again); Lisa Beamer, Todd Beamer's widow (Flight 93); Geddy, Alex and Neil - the guys in Rush; guitarist Eric Johnson; fiction writers Vince Flynn and John Grisham; the remaining men of Easy Company (see Heroes), specifically retired Army Maj. Dick Winters, retired Army Lt. Gen. Harold Moore, co-author of the book which became the film "We Were Soldiers."
