Thank God for soldiers like Sophie Hilaire

West Point graduate Second Lt. Sophie Hilaire is an Explosive Ordinance Disposal Warrior. In other words, she’s the one defusing bombs and other things that may go ka-boom in your face.

Recently in November she finished a marathon for a charitable cause to support the American Veterans with Brain Injuries.

What’s the big deal, you ask? Well, she ran that marathon in full battle gear.

And she’s only 120 lbs. — merely 35 lbs. heavier than the bomb suit she wore for the run.

We salute you, and congratulations for becoming a world record holder. But more importantly, thank you for your service and heart!
