A week with no names to announce and lost lives to honor is a good thing. I would much rather honor our troops as they return home alive though.
Bring Them Home
Lance Cpl. Caleb L. Erickson gave more than many wanted him to give. A life gone at 20 years old. What a tragedy. The death of this Marine shall not be in vain.
I have now been doing these weekly 'honor posts' for over two years now. In that time span, this is the longest we have gone without losing any troops.
Another week goes by as many forget we are at war. Two families have been given the ultimate reminder and will never forget. Neither will I...Rest In Peace.
Operation Enduring Freedom slumbers into another year but this week all good news from overseas with no loss of American life. Enjoy your freedom? Thank a vet.
2013 is in the books and we all want to know when the war in Afghanistan will cease. We lost 127 troops last year and for what's at stake, that's 127 too many!
As we get ready to close out another year, Operation Enduring Freedom continues with no end in sight. While we spend time with out loved ones this holiday season and ready ourselves for 2014, lest us not forget the families that have sacrificed for us.
