Heads bowed and eyes closed for one of our own. Truly one of America's finest.

For Honor!

I had noticed several years ago that my GGrandfather's grave had the incscription, "Co A 18th Alabama" on it.

I did some research and learned he joined at Elba, Alabama although he lived in Florida, right on the Florida/Alabama line. He lost two brothers at Chicamauga and another somewhere in Tennessee.

Although Elba is not the largest town in Coffee County, it is the County seat.

Absolute tearjerker. I have to say it is a terribly agonozing thing that makes one ask questions. How can God take him and allow a terrible kid like Johnny Taliban go to Afghanistan, join the ranks of the demonic, wage jihad against good-hearted people and live to write a memoir (that will be celebrated by the Left)?

Sadness! We should all make sure that this young man didn't die in vain. I know now that I haven't done enough. I think we should demonstrate our support- help the USO, write letters, send gifts and help the families on the homefront.

God, I am sad about this. The sacrifice is visible and appreciated-- the families need to know that.

Crying at my desk at work!!
