I'm sure most people here know his story and the sacrifice he made. This morning on Sportscenter they showed some more insight into his death and how it was a result of friendly fire. I know there are quite a few people on this forum that are or were in some form of military service and I'm sure most of us know someone who is currently overseas. I have two brothers in service, one just got back from Iraq and one going soon. The total casualty count for US Troops is over 2,700 in the Iraq War. I just wanted to say thanks for those who have and currently are serving our country. We b1tch about life here in the states but it's nice to keep a perspective on the situation and know that things aren't so bad. I am not a fan of Bush and his policies but I've always supported the men and women of our armed forces.
