Thank you for that.

I have a number of friends in Baghdad right now.  I pray for them and
their families every chance I get.  I also pray that every soldier in
combat, regardless of nationality, will make it home safely.

My area lost a soldier this past week.  He lived in Covington, Louisiana
and was described as an all American kid.  He was a academic and
football standout in high school and was highly regarded by those who
know him as a good guy.  

We should also remember the families of the fallen.  They will never hug
their loved ones again.

Subject: West Bend Death

At the end of The News Hour w/ Jim Lehrer they show in silence
pictures of soldiers killed in combat.  I was watching them and I saw
a guy, 38, from West Bend Wisconsin.  I didn't catch his name.

My wife has Grandparents in West Bend so I know the area well.

That guy will never get back there, never see the DQ on the corner,
never drive through German Town again, never have a beer with his
buddies.

No matter what we think about the war, there are guys over there dying
in our name and they deserve our thoughts and respect.
