To watch a good kid grow up in the church and then die in the war is just... I don't know how to put... depressing. I sat and thought about where we are as a nation today, what is becoming of us, where are we going, etc. and now that the adrendain rush of the excitment of the service is over, I feel the impact all the more.
This story, like so many others, was just gut-wrenching to watch. The sacrifices this young man made for our country with doing four tours in just six years in Iraq must have been difficult for him and his family.
That was a lot of time to be away from such a young wife.
