This is a salute from Amy Murphy to her fiancé Randal Sheets, a U.S. Army veteran.

Amy posted her video to iReport and added the following note:

"My daughter and I would like to salute my fiance Randal Sheets, who is a United States Army veteran. He served in Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm in the 82nd Airborne as a paratrooper. He was a frontline combat infantry soldier. 

He has given so much to me, my daughter, his four children and the rest of the United States. He suffers every day due to his service in the Army but he is still very proud of his time served, as are we. We were hoping to show him and the rest of the troops that have served our great country over the years a little bit of appreciation.
"

If someone you know and care about is serving (or has served) in the armed forces, it would be our pleasure to honor that sacrifice on HLN.  Visit our "Salute to Troops" assignment page at iReport.com and tell us about your hero.
