prayers for the family..
DH.. you are wrong. have TexKat put you on her Phantom Fury daily thread. she and others post every KIA they can find.... with great respect and honor.
I appreciate what TexKat is doing but you seemed to miss the point I was trying to make. The point is, the elite's offspring and relatives make NATIONAL NEWS while the peasants and serf's offspring only make the local papers. Somehow, it appears to the stupid general public and groupies that their children are special while old joe the plumber's children are simply cannon fodder.
I hope that TexKat's efforts become known nationally and are published by the MSN but I will guarentee you they will not.
hi again DH. on the PBS nightly news they always have the last few minutes for silence and the pictures of the fallen. i always try to watch that even if i don't watch their news. some think they do it for political reasons.. but i think it is done with reverence and respect.. and it never fails to bring the tears. i understand what you are saying.... but that is the way of it with everything "news worthy" these days... celebs and politicians get more press. we can't let that take away from this brave fallen one though... ya know?
happy trails.. and God Bless
