BY Anonymous on May 12, 2011 | | | | How I wish you were right now. I remember our last conversation being about me getting out the Army, and I've come to realize that before even hearing the news, I kept thinking of everything you taught me the day I decided to join again. I reenlisted only a few days after you left us, and every day, every move, every promotion, I still think of you and the strength you have given me. Now I turn to that strength and that knowledge to make the difficult decision I have to make today... I just wish I could hear your answer.Almost 10 years later, my ankle injury has gotten worse, but with every step, I remember how you literally dragged me by the back of your rucksack to finish the roadmarch. Thank you, DS, I can not thank you enough. I truly miss you, and keep your family in your prayers as I know how much more they miss their "Kiki." I'm listening DS.. I'm listening in my heart and know that everything I've learned from you will guide me in making the right choice today. Very Respectfully, Jennifer Valega

BY ludwick on May 26, 2008 | | | | There beside a grave she stands a folded flag clutched in her hands. A silent teardrop on her face,her brave young child has entered grace. She does not hear the sermon said, just memories run through her head. The child she held so long ago, the child with faith she let go. The child who heard the nation's call, and in the end gave it all, without fear or thoughts of self, thoughts of freedom and little else. The bugle plays TAPS in the wind, a mournful song it does send. A reminder to us all, that for freedom this price was paid, and her sweet young to rest was laid.
