Small consolation, but at least the man died on his feet, making a stand, for himself & his comrades. Born free from the blood and sacrifice of generations gone before, died free for generations to come.   to you Patricia, my thoughts and prayers to your family and friends. RIP

What a special day.  It's so beautiful out, yet here we are, sitting peacefully by our monitors, and this poor lad's family....man.  Words escape me.  As Morgan Freeman's character said in that movie "They went down standing up" (or words to that effect).  "No greater love hath a man who would lay down his life for his brother".  And brothers they are.  And sisters.  The only good news, if any, is that "they" have about 30 or so fewer today than yesterday.

To the fallen, we salute you.  To those of us who remain behind, remember these words:
"Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep..."
