This is my first time posting on this site and I just want to say my heartfelt sympathy goes out to this brave soldier's family. His duty and service to our country deserves the utmost honor and respect from those of us who live in freedom. My hope is that his wife and two daughters are strenthened by our prayers and cherish the memories of their husband and father as the "tough, dedicated, and skilled warrior" that he was.
