It's good of you to share your brother's email, and I feel that he is exactly right. I have recently returned from Iraq, and I spent a little time in Tikrit. In the short time since I've been back I feel like there are two different Iraqs: the one I lived in, and the one people here saw on TV. Your brother speaks of the Iraq I experienced, and the one I wish more people knew about.

I am sorry for your loss. From what little I've read of him, it is clear to me that he died among friends, doing the job he loved, and for a cause that he believed in. I hope you can find some comfort in that. What he gave his life for meant a lot to him, and his sacrifice means a lot to us.
