This is a beautiful tribute that was sent to me by a good friend in Georgia who is in close touch with native America and it seems to have not been seen by most here. I posted the link on a couple of other threads and it was suggested that it deserves its own thread.

It seems that in the midst of all the rejoicing over the rescue of PFC Jessica Lynch that the stories of those in her company who were not so blessed have escaped much recognition.

"They are renaming Squaw Mountain for her."

Actually, that seems to be the source of some political controversy.

Our prayers go out for her and especially for her family. We continue to remember all the fallen heroes.

Their sacrifice is what has made this country free.

"Pfc. Piestewa deserves better than to be used"

I agree. But since when did a democRAT let propriety, or the law for that matter, get in the way of his/her political ambitions?

Thier was some problems with the word 'Squaw' just a couple of years ago...

I think it means something like 'slut' or 'whore'. Not a realy good tribute to a female Soldier if you ask me.
