I must apologize for being derelict in my duties on reporting casualties from Operation Enduring Freedom. We have lost three more souls, and a civilian. Let's hope they are the last.
One thing most of us agree on, I believe, is how wrong it is to use 'Stolen Valor' for personal gain. Watch what happens when these Marines start asking questions.
This past weekend was full of highlights and Sunday took me to a home that showed more patriotism than any other I have seen in a very long time, if ever.
Marine Pfc. Randolph Allen of Rush, Kentucky, will be buried July 29 in Arlington National Cemetery, Washington D.C., 71 years after he as Killed In Action.
This is another personal invitation to join me this Sunday to honor OJ Alvarado, a local United States Marine from right here in Greeley who passed suddenly, and without warning, on 1 June, 2014.
More troops have been Killed In Action while we slept and enjoyed our freedom. 5 from the United States Army and 3 from the United States Marine Corps have given their all.
Lance Cpl. Caleb L. Erickson gave more than many wanted him to give. A life gone at 20 years old. What a tragedy. The death of this Marine shall not be in vain.
As we get ready to close out another year, Operation Enduring Freedom continues with no end in sight. While we spend time with out loved ones this holiday season and ready ourselves for 2014, lest us not forget the families that have sacrificed for us.
