Roger - tragic story but one felt with emotion and sorrow. These kids have put their lives on the line over and over again for reasons most can put into writing.
Their sacrafice like so many before them has touched us with their their heroics. I would hope - this time - we come away from this conflict - not licking our wounds but with a new set of ideals that will make us aware of the losses and sacrafices these kids put on the line - everyday.
SPC Jewell I salute you and your kind and other than that let me like so many other's say - "Welcome Home".
