RE: Matthew Thompson Died on Tuesday

So sorry for the loss. My condolences & prayers for the friends & family. We also experienced the loss of some dear friend's son to the war in Afghanistan. Growing up, he was a regular fixture around our house, us having 4 daughters around his age probably played a big part in that. His dream was to become a Marine & serve his country. He did just that, and was killed on his 1st damn mission. Being a disabled combat vet from V.N., my heart ached when I learned he was going to Afgh., but proud that he had accomplished his goal. When we learned of his death, it was 1970 all over again & I again went through all those mixed emotions of losing friends & reconciling my feelings of patriotism against thoughts of "how many times do we have to do this?". My heart aches for all those friends, families & fellow warriors who have given all. Sorry if this went too long or for those who think I threw myself into the mix unnecessarily, but I do find it almost therapeutic to vent my feelings on these painful notices of loss. My apologies if I am out of line.
Everyone thinks I'm strange except my friends deep inside the earth
