A friend of mine in Afghanistan just lost a "battle"/fellow soldier.

My wife's friend (who I served with) just wrote:

"One of Mike's friends from his company lost his life on Saturday fighting for our freedom :( Along with 4 others who got injured. He has an 18 month old daughter and wife he left behind. How sad."

Please pray for my friend Mike and his battles as well as all of the families involved.

This might not be appropriate but if there is anyone planning on sitting this election out... get off your @sses and vote for Mike and my friends.

I’m mad as h*ll right now.

Prayers for the family.
Where do we find these good men and women who go out and fight the good fight, while we have the dregs of society in DC.

Sad loss.

I will remember him and pray for him at Mass tonight, and God bless and keep his wife child and loved ones and friends in these heartbreaking days of loss.

I’m so sorry for your friend’s loss, and the loss to all of us every time one of our soldiers falls.

St. Michael spirit him up. On this day when we exercise the freedom that soldiers win for us we thank God for our protectors.

Indeed. Today is the day Americans have to make themselves worthy of such sacrifices.
