Thank you for remembering those who die to keep us free and those who spend 18 month tours of duty on an alter of absolute sacrifice. They are not permitted to reason why only to do and die. Don White, Tucson, AZ.

i am so grateful for the correction to the zip code. the post office was not helpful and it took some time to find this blog. NBC, MSNBC, googling Richard Engel, etc did not give me the information i needed to send the care package we so lovingly put together after the report came out re: Viper Company.
thank you so much. the package can go now and the boyz will love the goodies we put in.
