O.k., now you all got me going again, lol. Sniff.

She's a 'rock', isn't she? The truth in this one article may even thaw an Iraqi war correspondent's heart.

Thanks, Taxman. Updating it daily. (^:

Thanks, y'all, for guiding me to this moving commentary. *sniiiiiiiffle*

The majority of the military men and women I've had the pleasure of corresponding with the past several months have said the same thing Christy Ferer said, as to why they're more than willing to fight this war. 9/11. That's the reason. Some even joined the service for that reason.

Looking into that sea of khaki gave me chills even in that blistering heat. To me, those troops were there to avenge the murder of my husband and 3,000 others. When I got to the microphone I told them we had not made this journey for condolences but to thank them and to tell them that the families of 9/11 think of them every day. They lift our hearts.

Reading this gave me goosebumps. What a wonderful thing Ms. Ferer, Ms. Bauer, and David did, going overseas to personally extend the families' thanks to the troops for their efforts. My guess is they lifted the hearts of our troops with their visit.
