You're absolutely right, weatherwunder......this list of valiant soldiers DO need to be remembered!
My throat tightened as I went down this list.......and without a doubt, there are......and will be......many more added.
Our troops need our TOTAL SUPPORT and this growing list of grieving families and loved ones need to know how much every American should be appreciating deeply the sacrifices made.
Prayers hardly seem enough.....but I know most of us who gather here are sending them to those in need both here in the states and abroad.......p

Don't Get Sidetracked
Each one one those soldiers that died may increase the number of other troops and civilians that may live 10 fold. Everyone has a purpose under the Sun (the Byrds). A time for peace ;,a time for war; a time to live; a time to die. A shame that these men and women had to make an early exit. There will be rough going ahead. That's why we must stay the course and support our troops. Every day I go to work I know we must provide them with the best fighting tools on the planet. Don't let the press deceive you, they're trying hard to press for the demoralization of our fighting men and women, which, in turn will lead to more casualties on our side. Don't let the press do it. We are committed and cannot turn back now or we will cease to be. The press are quickly becoming the enemy.
Let us stay the course.
