The honor that goes into fallen soldiers is a rare, but common act. Just finished watching National Geographic Arlington Cemetery, a very proud seen to see the honor going into our fallen comrades.

Our child is dead in this useless war..
For what purpose???? To make the world safe for opium profits???
To protect our "Freedom", from goat herders in mud brick huts???

While stinking traitors destroy our country on the TV news, daily!
All the while, they defile the laws they swore to protect..
And now, openly prepare to make war on our own people!

Every time I watch one of these "Tribute Videos"..
It's like ashes in my mouth..

You seem to be new to the forums, but given posts like this, I don't think you'll be here after a couple of months.

When you engage in combat you do not think about your country, you think about your family and about those who are fighting next to you. It hurts but know that you will be reunited, God called your kid first, just wait until it is your turn, have faith. Remember your son is watching from upstairs and I dont think he wants you to be sad.

Those are hard to watch, I agree.  The flag draped caskets command respect and I pity those who do not understand.

Another thing I always think about when I see the rows and rows of cemetery markers is that each and every one of them represents a story, someone's story of their life.  If grave yards could speak to us oh what we would learn.
