He has served, and may his sacrifice never be forgotten.

God Bless him and keep him Close.

May the wrath of an angry God pay his killers a visit.

BROWNSVILLE -- The body of Army Pfc. Kristian Menchaca, 23, arrived at the Brownsville airport Monday in a solemn ceremony broken only by the sobs of his young widow.

Can you get booted off of FR for saying that you want revenge? Lots of revenge?

Taps

Fading light dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.
From afar drawing nigh,
Falls the night.


Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky.
All is well, safely rest,
God is nigh.


Then good night, peaceful night,
Till the light of the dawn shineth bright,
God is near, do not fear,
Friend, good night.

When I heard about what happened to these two young soldiers I cried and cried (and I don't cry too often). So young and so fine. And like you, I want revenge big time. God Bless you and keep you always Pfc. Kristian Menchaca and I'm also sending prayers for your family.

I drove by the center awhile ago. Flags are at 1/2 and signs of support are up all over the city. I turned my lights on as I passed by.
