Did they say what unit he was from? I hope that the brass figures out that they need to give a whole new meaning to the words "door to door search."

Take the frigging gloves off NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Warriors have always had to be brutal to those who fought before them.
Warriors have always had to be more brutal to the learned ones that came after them.
Warriors have learned difficult and treacherous lessons which have taught them lessons with which to be prepared.

We are grateful and blessed to be Americans.
We have the Greatest Warriors!
God Bless them All.

Joe- all of us with family over there get mad from time to time- sometimes it's because we ship a box that doesn't make it to our soldier on time. ;-) One thing to remember that my daughter has often told me is that when they leave on mission they leave their politics at the gate. They have to because they have an oath to uphold, nothing less and no matter what. I try to remember that when I want to vent about things, and it really helps. I hope you'll stick around- we can use all the military family support we can get.

Prayers up this soldier is safe and is found quickly. Prayers for his loved ones who are worried sick. Prayers up for those soldiers who are working to find him- Dear G-d please give them extra them wisdom.

I'm sure he'll be treated with all the protections that the Geneva Conventions afford him.

God Our Father, wrap this Soldier in the Arms of Your Love, and let them know You are God.

I pray this in Jesus name...

I have a soldier in Baghdad, too.

Echoing your prayers, only I'm adding the words "alive and well".

You certainly are defending the nazi's. But then it was only jews ....

Oh please. I certainly am not. There is no defense for what the Nazis did.

But I do think it is entirely fair to say that our Muslim enemy has ~less~ honor and ~less~ humanity than even the Nazis did. The Nazis were twisted and evil, but they were still twisted and evil ~human beings~.

Our Muslim enemy deserves no such recognition. Human beings do not walk into a pizza parlor and wait until it is full of children to detonate an explosive belt. Human beings do not detonate a second explosive belt in order to kill the ambulance drivers and fire fighters that respond.

Human beings do not stand and cheer when thousands of innocent people die in a pair of buildings that are hit by airplanes.

Lucky for us, our enemy is not even human. Therefore we need feel nothing for them. They are vermin. Mere parasites on the human condition, to be exterminated.

This may turn out to be a non-story.
The DOD gives brief mention on their site.

Sure wish some news outlets would wait for semi-solid info before running with a story.

This sends folks back home into fits.
