RIP to an American Hero

[tpanther]

I guess being a pop star for 30 years and selling 700 million cds does make news...as it should

Yes, I agree MJ should receive coverage. For about a few minutes. Then this man and his compatriots that die every day by the hundreds or thousands deserve the rest of the air time.

But not a mention is shameful, utterly shameful. IMO every medal of honor winner deserves notice when they pass.

If it wasn't for these peole, people like MJ wouldn't even exist. Not in the way he did, a multi-millionaire squandering a good chunk of his life.

Pardon me but it is bad form to post anything about this battle without a ping to Ronnie.

For those to young to know about this or have only seen the movie We were once solders, the following read is by the late Jack P. Smith (Son of the newsman Howard K. Smith) who was a Private that entered the battle on the on the Fourth day (The movie only covered the first two days).

Incredible, chilling piece of writing. I had to read the entire description of the battle that day.
