Thank you for posting this real story of what 1 man has done for his Country. Now this is someone I can admire for what he has done for me and the freedoms I have. This man should have millions at his funeral with tears of gratitude & tears of sorrow to think 1 so Great could have died so young and he did so for me and for you. Instead I sit here alone and wipe my silent tears from my eyes -as I from my heart say THANK YOU Staff Sgt (?) I love you & thank you so much. God Bless your family & God Bless the America you died for.
Love, Reeni T

@eric
I know how you feel. I was looking at the Fox News website this morning and there is a story about how a family is upset because their son died the same day as Jackson, but didn’t receive any coverage. It’s the same story for many me and women that die every day. It’s a sad state of affairs when our men and women that sacrifice their lives for this country don’t get the recognition they deserve from the country they love. Jackson has gotten way too much coverage and our soldiers never get much of any coverage.

This is quite a touching story. My heart goes out to all the families that have lost a son, brother, father, daughter, sister, mother, etc. God bless all of our troops. May those that have paid the ultimate sacrafice rest in peace.

As I look back at the two weeks coverage of Pop-music idol Michael Jackson’s passing by every form of news media and very little if any mention of our men and women in uniform as the country celebrated Independence Day I solemnly wondered how the “market value” of one can out weigh that of the thousands that gave all.
Thank You to the 101st AirBorne and all of our men and women in uniform.
