Tina,

I am very sorry to hear that.  Whenever I meet a vet, I thank them for their
service.  It also makes me discouraged and angry when their skills and
dedication are invested in a bad cause.  Between civilian leaders who are
complete fools and military leaders who establish ridiculous rules of
engagement, our soldiers are subjected to needless risks.   I truly  hope
Josh makes the best recovery possible.

Ken

LUG:

I am in New York for the LUG meeting at ICP and just got word that my
sister's grandson, a young Marine who recently graduated from Camp Lejune,
was injured by an IED in Afghanistan this morning.  Both of his legs had to
be amputated.  I don't that anything has been accomplished in Afghanistan or
Iraq that justifies the maiming and killing our young people.  It makes me
very angry.  Thoughts and prayers for Josh White would be greatly
appreciated.

Tina
