We lost another soldier Saturday

[Bigbeavk]

I just heard from my son over in England who is due home in June. One of the guys in his crew was headed to base for deployment and lost his life in a car accident. Please send some prayers up for this soldier and his family. My son and their commander will be meeting this young mans mother at the airport tomorrow.

God Bless this young man.

Holy Geeze...

A fellow PGR member who lives in Jackson, Mississippi had 2 Marines come to his door today to tell him of the loss of his son in Afghanistan from an IED...

he's preparing to go to the Dover, DE mortuary to make difficult decisions for the days ahead

may God be with Eddie Smith and his wife and daughter in law tonight and in the future

I'm gonna need some serious riding therapy with bike peeps as these situations develop...

<sigh>

Here's a short video my son posted in honor of his friend Bradly Ring.

He was from Redding, California (My son is in the group picture with the red shirt about four pictures in.)

Very Sad
