As one LIFE ends, one LIFE begins...
On January 8th, 1967, Twenty-Four (24) US Soldiers were killed in the line of duty in Vietnam. This is one day in the life of a war that spanned almost 20 years of our history. On this day, all branches of the service (except the Coast Guard) experienced casualties, with the Army totaling 19. These 24 soldiers were killed in 7 provinces while 3 were killed in the general South Vietnam area. Three quarters of these 24 soldiers were single while 14 of them were 20 years old and under. These 24 soldiers were from 17 states, with New York having the most, at 3 casualties. It is interesting to note that these heroes represented a cross section of our society, geographically and age wise. It is the hope that we can see these brave men again one day that keeps our resolve strong and equally more dedicated to fighting the good fight and furthering the cause of peace and humanity. So as a day goes by in WAR, remember how one day and one person can make a difference. We can honor heroes by remembering them and we can remember heroes by honoring their ultimate sacrifice which has helped to ensure the freedoms and liberties that we all have experienced, in this specific case, some 44 years later. Carlos Rodriguez, was one of these heroes and I fervently appreciate Carlos welcoming me into a world as the day Carlos lost his life was the day I was born. I could never thank Carlos enough for it and I pray to God that one day, I can meet Carlos and let him know what a hero I think he is.
