I have no clue how the families make it through each day? we have friends in Iran and Afghanistan, every time we get any word on them it is like a weight lifted off our chest and another prayer of thanks is said. I agree with you 100% ALL the men and women over they are just as special as the news men who were hurt. I am grateful they got out alive. Everyday the news tells more US solders are killed or wounded. Our fighting men and women have names; they are from somewhere, and have families who want to be by their side. All them seem to be is number, how sad is that? They only time you might hear a name is if they put it on the local news. They lost their life or were wounded for their country not just there home town? for their country! I cry for them?. and their Granny?s, Granddads, Grandbabies, Mommas, Daddy?s, Wives, Husbands, Brothers, Sister, Aunts, Uncles, Nieces, Nephews, and Best Friends?.. They are all hero?s and should and should be treated like one. How many years did it take the make the Vietnam Wall? I sure hope something is in place quicker for our fall solders! My thoughts and prays go out to you all that your loved ones are safe in your arms soon! Cecilia Robbins
