I realize he is harsh but Hugo is correct about how hard some are on America. Where is the outrage over the beheading of Mr. Johnson? There was SO much outrage - maybe deserved - over the way that we treat others, but not much over this civilian being brutally murdered in that way. There is a double standard one for the United States and one for the rest of the world. We will never win a war when the other side is banking on our hands being tied to make the rest of the world happy.

I'm going to do my best to not drop to your level Hugo. For one, you really need to READ my post before you TRY to respond. I'm not going to rewrite my last post so that you can actually get what I'm trying to say. 1) You are taking your apparent frustration(if that's not what it is, then what IS it?)out on Helene and just being plain nasty. 2) I really don't care if you don't care if "they" like you- I was making a point, like it or not. Some how you always find a way to misconstrue what I've said. 3) I didn't say that D Day was about helping people - it was obviously about defending our country. But you should read my post for real. I am well aware of the FACT that we were blown away on those beaches and know that it isn't a TV movie... You're making what I've said something its not. 4) I DID VOTE, I'm not stupid. BUT EVEN THOUGH I VOTED DOESN'T MEAN I HAVE ANY CONTROL! You are so so pityful, I mean really. Are you even an adult? I think you have a problem understanding the English language. So, let me give you a little lesson: "Take a [chill] pill" is a figure of speech. I am a college graduate and work in finance. I'm not ignorant. Your going to have to come up with something better than that. Liz, do you want to talk about the other citizens that have been beheaded since we went to Afghanistan? I'm willing.

Hugo in a way I am on you're side but you could possibly make your point in a nicer way. Just a suggestion if you want people to agree with you.

Dancer chick - drop to my level? I am sure you are use to droping down and all but really, why are you so concerned about my frustration? Just a job hazard I guess. I really don't think that d-day was just about defending OUR country it was also about defending all those snotty ass french (and the rest of europe) that are bitchin about us now. And for the record, there was no reference to "chill" in your post, take one and sit down and think. That is your problem (well one of them anyway) you twist and wiggle out of any point you try to make. I do not think that counting ones is to be considered "working in fiance" but hey, however you want to label it. Maybe you should stop swinging around the pole, I think it is getting you dizzy. To get back to my point.... I leave you with the bottom line AMERICA HAS FREED MORE PEOPLE IN 230 YEARS THAN THE REST OF THE WORLD COMBINED SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME....this is fact and now we are getting bitched at because some assholes would like us to do it nicer.... whatever, every time WE go in and free and spill our blood, we than rebuild with our money and they walk away a new and free nation thanks to us. ...do you even understand this, do you (and the french) just choose to believe that this is not the case?? Look it up, if it wasn't for us, who would have came to the calling? certainly not the creme puff eating french.

Hi... Kevin... as always, thank you for your words from the front. The harsh reality is for me very difficult to digest today as the man I am in love with just recieved deployment orders for October 8th. I guess it is the fear of the unknown that is most frightening to me. But everyday, I put a smile on my face, tell him how proud I am of him and move to a subject that is less impactful and reality based. It is almost a game really, because I don;t want him to think about me worrying about him. I just want him to think about what he needs to do to be safe so he can come home to me. We have only known each other a short time. He is a Major with the Reserves and is 35 years old... we have discussed marriage and engagement.... what we will do over the next three weeks I am unsure of. I pray everyday that he is deployed to Kuwait because I heard that it is not nearly as dangerous. (Is that selfish of me?? Still I hope he does.) When I read about the infantry men.... what struck me most was the fact that their lives are changed forever. What they see, hear, do, etc.... these experiences will stay with them forever... and at such a young age........ It also saddens me, and worries me even more that the military is not granting our soldiers the ability to go home. Shouldn;t they be home after one tour? I wonder... will my love go over there only to find he can not come home to me...... maybe ever....???? As I write this... I think of you Kevin..... because I know that you have done several tours over in this part of the world beginning with Afghanistan after 9/11. Although I do not know you personally, I admire and respect you and am so very proud of you...... You are a beautiful person to bring the human story home to all of us. I better stop writing now... tears fill my eyes, my heart aches, and fear is breeding sickness inside.....
Scared-

I thank you for these words and photo's---these young men become my own sons and son's friends when I see their faces and read their words. I have not done enough to see that they are protected from such things such as what is happening in IRAQ now. I will do all I know to help now. If there is anything they would like to recieve such as food, clothes, reading material letters or whatever let me know. They are all in my prayers and hopes and in the way I will vote come November. I want them all to come home now.
