DOH! Mods, I have a bunch of other stuff going on out here at Masum Ghar and completely forgot this should go in the "Attention To Orders" thread. Could you please move this to the proper venue?

farewell Tribute to a Fallen Soldiers........

God Bless,Rest in Peace Ranger Warriors...........

They were just simple soldiers and their rants are growing thin
But their presence should remind us; we may need their likes again,
For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do them honor while they are here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give them homage at the ending of their days......

Perhaps just a simple headline in the paper that might say:
OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, FOR A SOLDIER DIED TODAY. (author unknown)

The passing of our soldiers often go unnoticed and unsung by most of the world, remembered only by family and friends. Wish it were not so. May they RIP,their family will be in my thoughts and prayers.............

I realize it's a Canadian song,however I believe most appropriate for this occasion...

I agree. I hope and pray commanders have learned to take care of men without cheapening awards.
