I am a war vet. and I know about PTS. I feel what Sgt. Russell went through. No person should be put this type of trauma. The families of the slain servicemen, are going through the worst times in their lives.Our soldiers need a break, war is war, and no matter how you put it, the demons of hell will haunt way after a soldier has left the war zone. The body can only take so much.

I propose this, all of these young wanna be thugs, and thugs that are carrying guns, and killing others, should be drafted into the military, so our other soldiers can take a break.

I left part of me in Vietnam, and my son came home from Iraq with demons. Lord please ease the pain of the families that lost love ones, and help the Russell family make it through this.

Mr. President, do us a favor, use the resources at hand, a lot of able bodied youngmen, sagging their pants, and blinging,and riding on 22's, put them to good use, the armed forces.
