I watched the movie last night "We Were Soldiers" with Mel Gibson after reading Hal Moore's book " We Were Soldiers Once And Young". It blew me away and I highly recommend it. The intensity of combat and the reliance of each soldier upon each other was clearly demonstrated. With every young man in combat there is a family back home that cares. For those that did not make it home there is a void that never can be filled. R.E. Lee put it in perspective when he said: "It is well that war is so terrible, lest we become to fond of it." To all of our Fallen Heroes as well as those who survived let us say "Thank You For Your Service."
