D@mn... This is a tough story....Another great and courageous American...

I remember when my dad was a paratrooper Captain. I was very proud. I'll never forget.

In the surrounding neighborhood, troops furious at the news of their fallen leader called in revenge, in the form of a 2,000 pound bomb airstrike and a storm of 155 millimeter artillery shells. A mosque lost half a minaret, its main building smoldering in fire and smoke.

Knight-Ridder. They wouldn't make crap up, would they?

Aw, Geez....


Prayers to his family......

[BunnySlippers]

Very sad. Prayers.

[mystery-ak]

sigh!.....he sounded like a good CO.......my 1sg hubby did the same when he noticed one of his troopers not getting any mail....I got the word out and a host of freepers swamped him with goodies....

[Ros42]

So very sad. A true hero! Prayers for his family!!

We lost another good one. All the best to his fellow troops, family and friends. Words are so inadequate.

[myvoice]

words can't express, only my tears.

Thank you, Capt. Sims. You are one of so many heroes out there, fighting for us. I wish we were not forced into this war, thus grieving the loss of so many good men. May God bless your soul and comfort your family.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

For the Fallen,

The day we are no longer able to produce men like this is the day we become slaves. Just hurts so much to lose them. God bless his family.

WE are all so sorry. Words are not enough.

GOD rest his soul

I went to High School with Sean in Seoul, Korea. We were all military brats and despite different social groups, we all knew each other pretty well. Sean was a good guy, a great soccer player, and apparently a well-loved commander.

I'm proud to say I knew him and proud of his service to the country

Sounds like we lost another great one.

Damn.

While I was reading this story I was reminded of the movie "Bridges of Tok Ri", where the Adminral is sitting in his command chair, when he states "Where do we get men such as these, where indeed where do we find these men" [or to that effect]

My & my famlies prayers go to this man, his family & his command!
