A friend of mine and a very close friend of the other Paul was recently killed serving our country in Iraq. I did not know him as well as many others did, but I feel it is important we show him the respect he deserves for believing in something that he was willing to risk his life life for.
This is the first Iraq War death in which I was acquainted with the fallen soldier, and it is a weird feeling. I can only imagine how his relatives and close friends feel, and I give them my blessing. Death of any young man is tragic, and it feels worse losing a soldier willing to dance with death in a battle to secure our freedoms. RIP Jacob
