Exceptional Men
Think what you will about the United States’ involvement in Iraq, Afghanistan, elsewhere. I do not care if you come down on the side of the fence against it, or for it. That is your decision.
What gets me, is, those who are against U.S. involvement, who seem to take pleasure from the fact that U.S. military personnel are being killed. I consider this nothing more than sick, demented blather. I respect the men and women who voluntarily serve, at least the majority of them, considering the recent revelations about Abu Gharib, and mourn the facts of their death, as I mourn the fact of the deaths of innocent Iraqis or Afghanis.
Here are some stories about those who voluntarily serve, with fortitude. The piece is titled “2003: A Season of Valor, Sacrifice - and Many Heroes."
