One minor correction

I submitted the story to the local radio station. They have read a few of my submissions and thought they might mention this one.

Yesterday they brought in Josh, a local fire-fighter from the 124th Inf. 1st Bat Charlie Co, for an interview. He recently returned from Iraq. During the interview the hosts asked him about the media and his thoughts. The host took the opportunity to inter-leave the statistics from the article and indicated they would provide details about the 4 soldiers at the end of the show. Josh's interview was so well received he ended up staying through the entire show. At the end the host said it would be an injustice to race through the information about these four soldiers. - "If what we tell you doesn't make your chest swell and bring tears to your eyes you are not an American - these are the true heroes. We will cover this tomorrow".

I checked in this morning and, sure enough, their opening statement was: " We are going to tell you about Mark E. Mitchell, Jason Dean Cunningham, Joseph B. Perez and Stephen Bass: What the media won't tell you we will".
