God bless the heroes. We've had many kia's here in Iraq, but let's not forget those who are losing legs,arms and hands also.We came upon the scene of a suicide car bombing once and there was not much left of the soldier but his head and his feet,his helmet had melted in to his head. Soldiers dont die like they do in the movies. He died in Americia's name.....

Freedom watered/refreshed with the blood of patriots. Can't possibly express enough gratitude and pride, ever.

Thank you all!

We must never forget the scarifices our noble heroes have made and we must never, ever take our liberty for granted.

God bless them all, past and present.
