Today's Heroes

Modern Soldiers Deserve Our Respect and Admiration

Having given up on the mainstream media before the surge, I suppose this is old news to some, but I found this group: Veterans for Freedom a breath of fresh air. Their mission is simply to make sure the real story gets told. Indeed there is plenty of heroic good to report and I think it is a shame that the press goes silent when there is progress.

Perhaps it is just the "bad news sells papers" phenomenom but the young men and women who put themselves in harm's way deserve better from a free press that thrives in a free nation who owes that freedom to the sacrifice of such men and women.

So stop by their Website and learn more about their mission.

Thank You!
Run for the Fallen came through Rockfish Gap this weekend. Each mile they run is in honor of a fallen soldier. Here the gaurdrail at the crest of the Blue Ridge becomes a memorial.
