What a travesty for our soldiers ... they follow orders with caution to the wind to complete missions.
My prayers with family and friends of the soldiers.

Ironically, though interesting that it was the first responders to Osama's demise ... seems like everyone associated with the raid on the ground can't ever talk about it ever now.
It's the conspiracist in me ... just saying.

It is really awful to have that kind of news. It's also sad that they are among the people who might get a huge pay cut with all the government financial problems, yet they still do a top notch job and we don't hear the complaints that we'd probably hear from either side of the isle in congress if they were up for a decreased or nonexistent pay check.

Tragic, tragic, tragic.  No matter what your political viewpoints are, all of our hearts and thoughts should always be with the troops.  God Bless Them!!!
