You have my sympathy on your son's injuries George, it must be extremely difficult to be a parent at home when the child is injured so far away.. But it should be Afghani soldiers patrolling those roads, Afghani soldiers fighting for their homeland and government.. The parallels between the Vietnam conflict and our current involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan are far to similar..

All is well with Robert. I talked to him last night around 1 am. His injuries are not as bad as they were thought to be. He is a little banged up has ringing in his ears, but is feeling good. Every one else that was in the vehicle are doing well too. Praise God! Thank you everyone for all of your prayers and support. They where clearing a road for a convoy the terrain was so rough the forward mine clearing devise was not coming into contact with the road which let the armored vehicle pass on top of the IDE blowing the back end of the vehicle off flipping the vehicle throwing my son from the turret. I am not happy with the Army contacting us and not having the facts but the again they never did find the WMD's
