George S. Patton once said "A pint of sweat will save a gallon of blood" (War as I knew it, 1947). When I read that quote it reminisced with me because I instantly thought of Samuel B. Tobin. Not just Samuel B. Tobin but, all soldiers that gave their lives for America. Samuel B. Tobin was very accomplished, he received a Purple Heart and also completed some college before enlisting. Samuel B. Tobin sacrificed his life for the safety of Americans' lives and for the hope of a better future. Samuel B. Tobin's legacy will live on forever as he will not be forgotten.
