My friends son was killed yesterday in Iraq. We went to counseling on Wednesday, he called her on Thursday and she came home from work on Friday to find the Marines waiting at her door.
I know we both were worried about our kids being over there but we just kept saying "Believe" Believe they are fine, believe they will come home. And I think we both did believe that, that they would both come home safe. We live in a small town, nothing like that could happen here. How naive we were.

To Saint Peter He Will Tell;
One More Marine Reporting Sir,
I've Served My Time In Hell"

Rest in Peace JWB.
