Mcpl. Erin DoyleMcpl. Erin Doyle was killed in Afghanistan yesterday. Two combat deaths in 3 days. If anything, this should tell us why we are needed over there. This may sound a bit harsh, but at least Mcpl. Doyle died in a firefight with the enemy, he could see who or what he was fighting & from what I have read, his buddies made sure the bad guys paid. We have to pray for our troops, ask any soldier, "what can I do for you", I guarantee you the great majority of them would say,"please pray for me". In a bunker, during combat there is no such thing as an atheist.
As an ex soldier myself, & now a family member of someone deployed, I know all too well that feeling. Although I never had to go off & fight, the potential was always there. The training was always as real as they could make it. Our troops today receive the best training in the world. But, they still need our support & prayers, mine are with the Doyle family tonight as well as my sister, who is on her way over there as I write this.
Live well, Laugh well, Love well,
God Loves You.
