Thank you for showing us these so that we could be reminded of what yesterday was all about—people who fight for us.

We aren't as bombarded here with all of it, for one thing our military has refused to do anything except peace-keeping (which is not to say there aren't NZers there, but they aren't under the NZ Army, I believe), but this... It's awful, and I wish it would stop, so these kinds of things wouldn't happen to these men and women and their families. My god, that is heart-wrenching.

He's only going to be home for 3 weeks and in that whole period I will not mention one single time that I oppose the war he's participating in. That is saved for later, because I would hate myself for hugging the coffin instead of him and know my last words were filled with anger. Bobby, don't neglect the fact that you were moved by the pictures above. You would have to be exceptionally cold-hearted if it didn't mean anything to you. Or be President of the USA.
