Sgt. Eric Crayton, the first sergeant for the Extension Detachment, Company C, Special Troops Battalion, 4th Infantry Division, serving Christmas dinner to Soldiers at the Pegasus Dining Facility at Camp Liberty, Iraq.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died, We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived

    To often we Americans forget the people who are defending our freedoms. The sacrifices they are making for us can never be truly known by those of us who were not there.

    Regardless of whether you support the war or not, respected and admiration for our soldiers is a must.

    Judy: all of our men/women in the military are something to be proud of. I come from a family where a lot of ancestors were in the military. They were in the the Civil War, the Revolutionary War, WWI, WWII and my daughter in Iraq. I’m proud of all of them.
