"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf" George Orwell

Rough men, yes, courageous, yes, but also kind and caring for their fellow rough, in-kind, comrades in arms!

Check out his hands in that picture...see how pale they are? Yet his face is ruddy? His body is shunting blood away from nonessential areas (hands, feet) and focusing it on more imperative areas...head, brain, internal organs.

Incredible picture.

'The final rescue phase of the battle claimed the life of Sgt. Byron Norwood, whose parents were spotlighted during President Bush's State of the Union address.'

The same greiving parents that the DUers were trying to disparage by declaring that "The Hug" was staged...
