Congrats, soldier.
A great guy, and we need more like him. It makes me sick that immigrants from India, who tend to be EXTREMELY skilled, well-educated, English-speaking, eager to assimilate, and are over-represented among doctors, computer programmers, and engineers, are denied a place at the table by a bunch of illiterate, unskilled peasants who could easily be replaced by native born losers by cutting off social programs and making otherwise-worthless inmates work for their meals.
Kick out all the illegals and bring in more immigrants from India. We have more unskilled retards than we know what to do with. We need BRAINS.
This man has every right to be as proud of his Indian heritage as he wants, but he’s an American to the bone.
Welcome Aboard Soldier. May you live long and achieve all that the American Dream means.

“He was my only son. His ambitions took him to the U.S. and then to Iraq. We lost him, but he died a martyr’s death,” said a grief-stricken Shirin, Kathiria’s mother.
More than 2,000 people thronged the streets of the Muslim-dominated town, south of the state capital, Gandhinagar, shouting “long live the Indian martyr” and showering flower petals on the wooden coffin.........
