Lance Corporal Tony Sledd was the U.S. Marine killed in Kuwait yesterday. All my condolences to his family, friends, and fellow Marines. My Senior Drill Instructor, Sgt. Reid, once told me that "Marines die in combat so that others may die of old age."
The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: For thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
Mere words can not express how I feel about this. Another Wariorr coming home on his shield. Certainly not a "good" thing, and yet a noble, PROUD thing.
That is very comforting Ukmitch. Thanks DM for putting up the Eagle, Globe and Anchor. The Marines are the best. They're always the first ones in...and the last ones out.
Gravity....not just a good idea, it's the law! My Magic
