REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

Pvt Nicholas Cook, USA, KIA Afghanistan 7MAR2010

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

God Of Our Fathers



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Great Post!

I see in one of the photos, they're holding a photograph of Marie Michel Robinson. I've been with my granddaughter to her crash site, as I've used Marie for a role model for her.

The young'n has been taught to expand her horizons, keeping in mind there is always a risk.

[AZamericonnie]

A very good evening to you Conor...a good day? *hugs*

No rain today!:)

[ConorMacNessa]

We're expecting a deluge in the next couple of days here.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!
