Marine Dies Defending His Wife
Tragic...
http://www.military.com/news/article...ml?ESRC=dod.nl
A Marine from Texas survived combat in Iraq only to be murdered in the French Quarter -- stabbed to death even as he wore his dress-blue uniform complete with battle commendations pinned to his chest.

Honor and fidelity to the end. I can think of no better cause than giving your life for the one you love.

What type of useless animal feels the need to heckle some random woman on the street and then murder her husband because he won't sit there and take it. I hope when catch that piece of human filth that unspeakable things are done to him by his fellow inmates for the rest of his useless life.

Rest in Peace Marine. Thank you for your service and sacrifices. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of this warrior. To the perps, Burn in Hell!

Stabbing a servicemember while they're protecting their loved one and wearing their dress uniform has got to be a new low. I hope the perpetrator is caught and severely punished.
