In honor of Memorial Day....For those of you that know me....read this: http://www.star-telegram.com/189/story/663637.html
Of note: When Jeff returned from Iraq in 2005 from his first deployment, he told his father about a gun battle in Samarra between his men and insurgents. When it was over, two children lay dead, caught in the crossfire. He told his dad he would never forget the sound of the mothers' wailing.
Samarra is a pivotal city....to so many people and for so many diferent reasons. Someday, everybody will realize its importance.
Love, honor and support all our military men and women.

How said that Jeff didn't get the help that he obviously needed. I have to wonder how many other soldiers are hurting inside and not getting any help, either. Unfortunately, in the military, it is considered weak to ask for help.
We watched the Memorial Day concert that took place in DC. It was very touching, with many remembrances of soldiers who had been wounded or killed in WWII, Korea, Vietnam and Iraq/Afghanistan. Too many...
