Agent Tourscher,

Thank you for your service . . for daring to walk the path of the warrior . . . for being part of the thin blue line, and even more uniquely, part of the U.S. Border Patrol's honorable "green wall" that protects America's Southwest border from criminals who would otherwise breach our country's borders and illegally enter. I honor you Sir. Rest easy, we'll cover your post. With utmost respect and brotherly love, Jim Crotty (former Richmond, VA Policeman).

The credit belongs to the one who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if they fail, at least fails while daring greatly. So that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
