REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!





John Felipe Romero, Spain, KIA Afghanistan 1FEB2010

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)


God Of Our Fathers



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

It's always sad to see these posts, Conor, but especially sad when there are so many in one day. :( There seem to be no words to express how grateful we are for their sacrifice for our country. God bless and comfort all their families.
