When War Hits Home

The Screaming Eagle. Let me tell you, if the eagle is not screaming, my family sure is... If you have been following the news you should be familiar with the recent events with the deaths of Iraqi civilians seen here
I have plenty family members involved in the Navy, Army and Marines and I also know of the politics involved with such governmental powers and privilages. As you read in that article, three members of the 101 airborne have been charged with murder. This was yesterday. Today my family gets a phone call that My cousin Louie who is a member of the 101 airborne has been court marshalled in accordance with the investigation. No one can really say anything because you were not there during the incident - all you know is the personality which left the family in the first place to join this national organization. I hope the truth comes forth and I hope he is not involved in the accusation. I am proud of those who serve our country and at the same time it really is a shame they have to experience the trauma that comes along with the job. They are the reason why you and I can sit here and not worry about our safety while they constantly worry about theirs.
