Sgt. Roman Diaz defines the American soldier. As an old retired soldier myself, I stand in awe of these young soldiers, Marines, sailors and airmen currently fighting the war on terror for us. They make me so proud to be an American.

No whining. I like that. It's great that her son can count on the strength of his parents. Lightens his load considerably.

It's nice that his Captain called, and we make a point of knowing the names of the folks in our sons chain of command just in case - too many asshats have been calling parents with fake "your son is (dead, badly injured, etc)" to take a phone call at face value without some type of confirmation.

On the other hand I NEVER want to come home from work and find a Marine Corps vehicle parked in front of my home, nobody should have that experience....

Truer words have never been written.
