smokem's blog post - ~~~just made me sick~~~

Wednesday, August 22, 2007, 8:20:58 PM
I just feel sad today, because I heard where a blackhawk chopper went down in Northern Iraq killing 14 of our U.S. soldiers. Why!! Why does this have to happen!! It just sickens me when I hear of such a disaster like that. That was 14 soldiers. Someone's, husband, son, father, brother, uncle, cousin, nephew,etc. Such a waste of their lives, just gone. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of their families, and also to the other thousands of men and women who have also lost their precious lives for us!!! I praise them deeply!! Take care...Dianna...

The military people you "1stiffdick" speak of have been around as long as the United States has had freedom. The men and women of our armed forces are not blind fools, they will always be part of our checks and balance system. Jim (USAF retired)

USMC retired and I love every 1 of those kids. 1 life is too many. How do you compensate for such a loss? No matter when, there is always a conflict somewhere. Their presence in the service speaks volumes that some of them will never be able to speak, God bless them all - and all the rest of you vets...
