The tragic story of 1st Sgt. Jeff McKinney
Please read this.
Here are some excerpts:
As of May 3, 139 soldiers, 25 Marines and seven sailors have killed themselves in the Iraq and Afghanistan war zones, according to Pentagon data.
Their hope:
McKinney’s family believes that if his chain of command had paid closer attention to the symptoms, his death might have been avoided. And they hope that by talking about it now, months after his death, they might help prevent other suicides.
Finally:
“My son was falling apart, and no one helped him,” Watson said.
Another family torn at the seams. Another child who will never again see his father. Another woman never to hold her husband in her arms for comfort and strength. NEVER AGAIN.
I support our troops, but we are not the worlds’ babysitters. Its time to hand Iraq back to the Iraqis and Afghanistan back to the Afghans and BRING OUR MEN AND WOMEN, OUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS, OUR MOTHERS AND FATHERS HOME!
