It is kind of sad that it is almost 12 hours later and there are no posts. Something like American Axel and other stories get 100's of posts with in hours. We have a real story, with a real hero and no one saying thanks. I hope Corporal McMindes or his mom read this and receive the most heart felt thanks that I can give. Thank you very much for what you do.

No, we are all happy he is home and safe.

He has done his duty and should remain out of harms way. Unfortunately he may have to return much too soon the way they are recycling all able bodies.

We can joyfully celebrate the return of the living but at 3:00 PM on Memorial Day give life a pause and silently give thoughts and prayers to all those who left their sweet lives and donned duty and will never return.
