You sir are a great American and your son deserves to be honored by us all. I too serve in the US army and would willingly go to Iraq or Afghanistan to fight the tyranny that some would have us live under. I just pray that I am raising my children to feel the same as I do. They also know that freedom isn't free. Unfortunately the price is higher for some than others. God bless you and welcome your son into His kingdom.

If we don't stand up to the Cindy Sheehans, Michael Moore's and the politicans who are using Michael's death to further their agenda of undermining our Commander-in-Chief, then Michael Jason William's devotion to this great country will be rendered meaningless.

Thanks for passing this on Jim. America needs to realize that these brave men and women are following in the footsteps of the Founding Fathers by pledging their lives, if necessary, for the cause of liberty and freedom.

"But the Anti-American, anti-war crowd that pretends to 'support the military, but not the mission' are a pack of liars."

I agree 100% with the above sentiment and will venture further. Sheehan, Moore, Kennedy, Reid, Dean, Howard, Pelosi, Fonda, Kerry, et al, and their America hating followers are betraying their countrymen while offering aid and comfort to the enemy during wartime. There's a formal word for this activity: TREASON. These despicable traitors should be dealt with accordingly.

REST IN PEACE

LOST IN IRAQ
YOU ARE MY HERO

[The Duke]

I stand humbled by the sacrafice of your brave son. I have no doubt that he will live on in your own heart until it, too, is stilled. And on that day you and he will once again be together, whole and happy.

Prayers here for you gallant and noble son.

Here is a link to a poem written long ago by another brave young warrior just days before losing his own life.

Powerful. This man lives in the same town as Cindy Sheehan.....what different views.

[Radix]

It just about breaks my heart every time that I learn of another loss of one of our Troops in this affair.

I am now counting the days until my own son returns from his second "combat" tour over in Iraq.

Each day is difficult, and everyday I somehow find a new reason to despise those in certain political offices and in the media who prove that they are in truth nothing more than subversive. That or they are so completely consumed in themselves and their personal glory that they say and act in ways which puts our Troops including my son in potential greater harm's way.

These politicians and members of the media are an absolute disgrace, as they regularly give succor and encouragement to those who who would kill us all without a second thought if they indeed could.

Dear Mr. Williams

Words can never express how thankful I am for the sacrifice made by your son for me and my family. My heart goes out to you and your family and I pray God may bless you and give you peace.

Your son is an American hero, who along with thousands of other brave Americans, will never be forgotten by me or my family.

God Bless America

As a father with a young son, I cannot imagine the pain you must have felt.
I pray for your peace of mind, and thank you sir for your sacrifice.

"If we don't stand up to the Cindy Sheehans, Michael Moore's and the politicans who are using Michael's death to further their agenda of undermining our Commander-in-Chief, then Michael Jason William's devotion to this great country will be rendered meaningless."

Exactly right. Please be comforted that there are many people who will not allow that to happen. Prayers for you and your son. We all owe you a debt that cannot be repaid.

"I know from bitter experience."

"I am a Vietnam veteran."

Please also be comforted in knowing there are many who still remember and are deeply grateful for the sacrifices of the Vietnam vets and have not forgotten how badly they were treated.

Thank you both for your extraordinary sacrifices.

Thanks for this post, Jim. It's deeply appreciated on this end.
