Dear Soldier,
As I type this letter sitting in my comfortable bed, I can’t imagine your plight standing at the border tirelessly. No amount of gratitude will suffice for your courage and sacrifice. I don’t even know how to thank you but all I can say is that I’m indebted to you, and won’t be able to repay you in my whole lifetime. I remember requesting my parents to buy me an army uniform, but at that time I didn’t know the dedication and honour required to be serving in the line of duty.
