I am sorry for your loss, man.
This is the true reality of war. We should always remember that.

It truly is. War was sanitized when the U.S. administration forbid pictures of wounded troops or shutter a dead service man's body. In Vietnam, when the populace was bombarded with these sights it caused many to turn against the idea of war. Currently, it's out of sight...out of mind. Americans need to see this. Let's remember...it's not the soldiers who start a war, it's the politicians and we need to start holding them more accountable for where they send our military.
