My heart aches for a fellow friend here on CS, Zdeathangelz. I just learned that his son lost his life while serving over in Afghanistan. I was so saddened to hear this and Zdeathangelz could really use some support right now.
I just want to thank everybody that has and is serving in our military. My heart goes out to every family on either side of this conflict, that has lost a loved one.
zdeathangelz: while you are out Christmas shopping for your love ones and friends.buy a toy for toys for tots and donate in the memory of a fallen hero.when you hand it to a Marine grab them and hold them tight and whisper in their ear thank you
Will do, DA. I love giving a toy for tots and will donate in memory of your son, then thank the Marine also.
Recently, some friends and I were at a club and some brand new Marine recruits were there. They were in our area for training and in their suits still. We walked up to them and talked to them, then each of us bought them a beer. They were so young, it broke my heart some thinking about them and their families. I really enjoyed our conversation with them. I wish everyone would appreciate our military more. They give us so much and are so far away.
I feel for people who at war now and their families. That is one thing. But to also lose someone in your family is mighty hard. I know,I lost my father at age 14. I went into shock when I heard the news. My poor Grandmother called to tell my Mom, but I answered the phone. My Grandmother did not sound herself. She knew how the news was going to affect me. So she asked to speak to my Mother. That was one of the worst days of my life.
But at least, DA, you and your son had a talk about what he was getting into, and had made peace about losing the battle.
But still I wish to hell, he was still alive and able to see you again. But he died his way.

I am sorry for the loss of another son and soldier. I lost a childhood friend in the war, my brother also lost a few friends from high school in afghanistan. Soldiers and Sailors in pittsburgh, pa, usa will be honoring all those who gave their life for our country in the next weeks. i will say a prayer for the family of "z". to all who have lost loved ones, here and abroad, you are in many prayers as well.
