Thank you for posting this. There are really no words to express proper gratitude for what the Marines or any other forces do for our country. It is a moving photograph.
I think this picture was on the front page of the Virginian-Pilot too. It's an incredible photograph of 2 incredible men! There's nothing I can say to show how much I appreciate what our veterans past and present are doing. God bless all of them and especially those that are in harms way right now.
THanks for posting this picture. I wish it would be printed again so many more people can see it.
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!""
Wow! Good picture...good story.
