E-mail from soldier in Iraq
Hello everyone,
Unfortunately I am sending out this email to
everyone because we have
suffered another loss here on my base. Yesterday we
lost 4 soldiers when an
IED hit their Humvee in a nearby town. I had worked
with all four of them
in the past, but I only knew one of them well as he
was part of another team
that does the same job as my team. I wanted to pass
their names on if
anyone wants to say a prayer for them and their
families. Private First
Class Matthew France, Sergeant Scott, Sergeant
Flannigan, and Specialist
Yazzi. Take care.
Jon


Sad stuff, eh?

3. Bob Schieffer on CBS news used to honor a fallen soldier every evening,
but now they show a living soldier who got an award for good service. Oh, well, Amurka doesn't want to hear about the dead.

4. It whips the freepers into a frenzy
I'm sure he got endless e-mails from them (and all their seperate identities) accusing him of being anti-American etc.
