God speed soldier.

Self-sacrifice: it's who they are and what they do.

The money keeps rolling in. I checked about 2 AM Central Daylight this morning and it was $302,000+.

FoxNews put it on its Breaking News page on Good Friday or Holy Thursday. That helped the numbers alot.

There is a thread on Freerepublic about the FoxNews story:

Afghanistan: Friend raises $181,000 for family of Green Beret killed

Funding is now at $306,000+ at 10:00 AM Central Daylight.

Original goal was only $15,000. So it is currently just over 20 times the original goal (20 x $15,000 = $300,000)
