Please read. I have sad news.

If we might contact the sender and get a home address we might want to send a care package or donation in the form of savings nbonds if he had some kids. A little from each of us might go a long way. Just a thought

This was written for Submariners lost "on eternal patrol"; but it's the only appropriate memorial I know:

”There is a port of no return, where ships
may ride at anchor for a little space.
And then some starless night the cable slips,
leaving only an eddy at the mooring place.
Gulls veer no longer, Sailor rest your oar.
No tangled wreckage will be washed ashore.”

Thoughts and prayers for his friends and family...



May his sacrifice never be forgotten.

X2. For a man who not only gave his life for our country and safety but a man who chose in life to better every one of his fellow soldiers around him by helping us help them all.

My thoughts go out to his family.
