My first cousin PFC Casillas was killed in Afghanistan. He was hit by a mortar round while trying to carry another wounded soldier for medical treatment. Mortar round killed them both. As much as today is a celebration of our freedoms, it is also an emotional day for that part of my family. http://articles.latimes.com/2009/nov/08/local/me-casillas8![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/d2LYOtW.jpg)

Yeah, well, I always heard there were three kinds of suns in Kansas: sunshine, sunflowers, and sons-of-bitches.

That sends chills up your spine just thinking about it. This young man died on Independence Day fighting for the very freedom this day represents!! I salute your family on this day for the sacrifice this great American gave....

Two things come to mind when reading this.
No greater love has a man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
Thank you Thank you Thank you for your sacrifice

I can't add to the gracious words already posted. God bless your family.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Breaks my heart thinking one so young who gave up his tomorrow so we could enjoy our today. Thank God for this young man and so many others like him.
