We attended a funeral about 6 months ago for the little brother of a high school friend of my husbands that was killed in Iraq...the saddest thing I have ever seen is a little girl of no more than 4 years old kiss her daddy's casket and say "bye,bye daddy".The soldier was only 22 when he died.

Some of the comments below the video I found disturbing and sad. ============ Quoting from ka: Whether you support the war or not, please support our troops. ============= -------------- I am training for birthdays.

"when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." This is a quote from the United States Declaration of Independence...most soldiers fight...and die so there children won't have to...no matter their home country,all soldiers fight for the same reason. This is not my "political" opinion...jus my heartfelt belief...

Save it for the right forum, not there. Just my opinion, however. -------------- I am training for birthdays. Be here. Live. Love. Hope. Now. Faith. Believe.

You're so right, some of those comments are discusting. It makes me sooo angry to see how truely dumn and blind so many of us are. Why is it that there is never enough support for our troops?
