Another has fallen
« on: July 05, 2010, 11:29:02 AM »
This one hit close to home...Blair Thompson was killed last month in Afghanistan. He was a grad of the 2008 class in my city and was only 19 years old.  :cry He was in Afghanistan for a mere few weeks.

<S> Blair, thank you for serving.

It hurts my heart to see us lose these young kids. This young man gave all for his country and he didn't even get to experience it's true wonders yet. My sympathies to his friends and family.  :salute
