I'm in Awe: Tammy Pruett, Military Mom

August 24, 2005 | By Charmaine Yoest

Tammy Pruett

Tammy Pruett has five sons in the military, four of whom are in Iraq right now. Her husband served in Iraq last year, too.

Look at that face. The Pesident mentioned Tammy today by saying: "America lives in freedom because of families like the Pruetts." (See Drudge.)

So true. So humbling.

Think we'll have a spate of media attention on the Pruett men? Not a chance.

Tammy, you and yours have my undying gratitude and respect.

Tammy, I bow down to your sacrifice. Hopefully all will return healthy. I'm sure they will be wiser and will understand the meaning that freedom is not free. You and your sons have my utmost respect.

We were a free country before the Iraq War.

We would still be a free country if the US hadn't invaded Iraq.
