My son-in-law went to Iraq, seen things, did things no one at his age should have to, but it was in service to our country. He thankfully came home in one piece, with stories and videos that were just sad. We've had many in our area also KIA, even a former student from our high school. Our English class read "Thura's Diary", a diary of a young girl when Saddam Hussein was in charge. It gives their perspective and the sufferings they went through in Bagdad. I always try to say thank you to our men and women who serve, it is a very proud and honorable thing when one does this, very sad when they give the ulitmite sacrifice of their life. Thanks for making us aware, prayers and thanks to them all.Karen Mrs. Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05224247768783943717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2076932166540355726.post-44090525983614336012010-04-17T19:44:40.476-04:002010-04-17T19:44:40.476-04:00Thank you for following.

It makes my eyes leak. It's a loss I've felt before, and to me it doesn't matter if it's from Canada or the United States...it's still a heart felt loss. Thanks for sharing this.<br />I'm going to be a follower of this blog.Covnitkepr1https://www.blogger.com/profile/14155059748601952927noreply@blogger.com
