Our men and women of the armed forces put their lives on the line everyday for us. I served 21 yrs and pray for them daily, because we, must never forget our fallen veterans.

A sad day for our men and women in the armed forces, a sad day for our country. Prays go out to the familys of these fine men who protect our freedoms here at home and represent us overseas!

As long as there are people like us, these brave American heroes will never be forgotten. Like the Duke said in one of his movies: "They're always there; the regiment. The names may change but the regiment will go on." Those of us grateful enough to remember this sacrifice must always support "the regiment" and ensure it continues. This tragedy reminded me of something I asked my Dad when I was a boy and I remember it today. I asked him "why do men fight in wars Dad?" He answered very simply "There are always Americans who will go."

It's time for this to STOP! We've lost too many of our brothers & sisters already, and too many have come home crippled mentally & physically.
