It IS sad, that's why I posted it. I hope no one thought I was trying to be 'funny' with this post and the title as that's not the case at all. It just kind of touched me when I saw it and wanted to share.

I realize that every one of our Troops are precious but yeah, for some reason, whenever I read or hear about losing troops I think of madhat and other active duty DTR members first.

Very sad photo. What really bothers me is when people post these pictures on facebook and use them as chain mail to get likes and repost..
