On June 1, Lambert -- a husband and father of a 2-year-old daughter -- died from injuries suffered in a Humvee accident on Memorial Day.

I am a Marine. I have been in the Marines for over eight years. It has always been a dream for me to be in the Marines. I love the challenge. I continuously work and sweat for it.

I'm sorry to descend to the mundane, but I'm getting *really* tired of reading about our troops dying in Humvee accidents.

What the **h**L** is going on??

(And please don't bore me with statistics about norms in auto fatality rates... these aren't the average idiot Barbie and Ken doll, getting killed over there).

Damn...
