Last words from a Marine.........one of many..

[hammer1]

Shortly before he was killed on Nov. 9, Marine Staff Sgt. Russell Slay wrote a letter to his family. In it the 28-year-old Humble resident, anticipating death, said his goodbyes to his young children.


He told his 9-year-old daughter Kinlee that he'll miss her, but that she'll always be his little girl and he'll always watch out for her. To 5-year-old Walker, he offered advice that he hoped would put the boy on a less risky career path.





"Be studious, stay in school and stay away from the military and vote for a President with wsdom," he wrote. "I mean it."

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

I think the part about staying out of military would take care of the rest.

However maybe better he could have sent copy of oath that all miltary take when being sworn in to son and tell him if it isn't his cup of tea, don't sign up. As I am sure he wasn't drafted.

If his dad would have warned him, there would have been no story. End of conversation!

American policies deserve to be criticized but only by those who have a moral right do so, based on their own consistency and integrity.
