BELOVED FATHER IN HEAVEN,

We ask that you will enfold the family and loved ones of Sgt. Brian Wood. Comfort them and hold them strong and peaceful in your arms. Help them in their efforts to spread abroad the words left by Brian. Guide them during their time of mourning.

We are so grateful for Brian and the decision he made to protect this nation and to liberate another which was under the Tyrant's heel. We can never repay the debt. Father, despite that, convey to his soul our gratitude and help us to live in such a way that pays honor to that sacrifice.

Let all who mourn be comforted. Let all who strive under tyranny be liberated. Let those who have sacrificed be blessed and honored. Let all who hunger for your touch and Love be filled.

Amen

Thank you so much.
Thank you for your words of comfort and encouragement.
Thank you for prayers.
Thank you for all those who have served, continue to serve, and those who truly support our troops and what they are fighting.
I am deeply hearten by the comfort that there are Americans out there that understand the cost of our freedom and I am so grateful to have found this website and a place where I can relate and feel like I belong.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks for the ping, Chieftain. As I noted, this is yet another true life snapshot of Iraq that will never appear in the LIEberal lamestream press.

Chills going down the spine - PING!

"My brother Sgt. Brian Wood was killed in Iraq on April 16th and since his voice can not be heard any longer, our family is trying to get an email he sent to every American who is willing to read it. We thought this email, sent from Iraq Thursday morning, April 15th, from Sgt. Brian Wood (serving in the 1st Infantry Division) to his Uncle Mike, might help shed some light on the current war situation:
