Jay Lovato fights the Battle of Earth every day. He wakes up, he pulls his suit on, and he goes out to do battle with politicians and newsies who want to see the Cowboys cut out. He makes himself a living, breathing example of the Cowboys for the common Earthling. He reminds them all of the heroic actions we take every day to save worlds on the edge of civilization. Because of him, the politicians have never been able to disband us. We are still members of the American military, even if a step or three removed. Even my own crazy Cowboys are at least tolerated on Alliance worlds. And when people call for help, we can still fly in and help them without having to fight too many jurisdictional battles. Never forget the battle Jay Lovato fights every day to keep this true.
