Thank-you for your service to our country...to all of us.
God bless you.

Per your tagline...were you wounded in Somalia?

I'm wondering why you needed to put this timely and uplifting....yes, uplifting....story in chat...(not that chat is bad!!)....

In news/activism, we get countless threads on Brokeback Mountain...

..and this story is lightyears beyond that ridiculous hollywood hoopla.

This story is real and powerful and a must read.

This should be in a sidebar....and getting more attention, IMO.

I faced death with the secure knowledge that you would not have to. This is as close to Christ-like I can be.

This was a good man indeed.
