It makes you realize though that family is the most important thing, all the other stuff doesn't really mean much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care how you feel politically, you should always support the men and women of our Armed Forces. Without them we could have no debates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this on this board because he's related to a USF player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They ran with the same friends, graduated with the same class. And they followed each other into battle. The family of Staff Sgt. Matthew Steven Sitton, 26, learned Thursday that the Indian Rocks Christian School graduate died this week after stepping on an improvised explosive device in Afghanistan, just a month away from returning home. His death comes a year after friend and fellow graduate, Spc. Frank Gross, 25, died in similar fashion. He was 21 days into his first deployment. The news was another tragedy for the school, with an enrollment of about 700, and its extended family of students, faculty and friends. ....

America has enough problems of their own without trying to police the world. Another senseless death. I truly hope he is in a better place. But never will a day go by where his loss can be made up to his immediate family. My prayers are with them through this terrible time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
