To be remembered in the hearts of those you have left behind - is to never die!!!!! As Abraham Lincoln once wrote:

"I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom."

Semper Fi, Marine!!!

We all do our jobs and go to dangerous places. We all put our lives on the line. I also know people say god has a plan. When people this young are taken like this or in other meaningless accidents it makes it hard for me to beleive he has a plan. RIP!

[Washu73]

They went with songs to the battle, they were young. Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted, They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.

[eagle1jima]

You stayed the course of honor.

You held our torch of Freedom high.

And as you fell, you passed it on - to us.

We cherish the warmth of its glow as you did.

And continue to hold it high as we go forward.

And as it goes proudly forward lighting the future,

You are always in its light

As it bears the fruits of your sacrifice.

You stayed the course of honor.

It is because of fine young soldiers like Philip, I choose to serve myself. My own service is the least I can do to return respect and honor the memories of those who chose to put on the uniform and paid the ultimate sacrifice in doing so. Nothing can ever repay them and their families but we can all honor them the best way we know how. I salute you Philip. You will never be forgotten. All brothers and sisters in arms will never allow it.

[RonUSMC2]

To understand the gravity of the sacrifice is to bare some of the burden. It is so much more than just a loss, it is the spirit and the valor that by which it was achieved. Only then can you understand how vast the hole of emptiness they have left in their wake. It is so deep, a million tears could not begin to fill it.

Semper Fi Brother.

He is currently on his 3rd deployment and although i don't get to talk to him as much as I would like, he is the biggest inspiration in my life and I don't think I could imagine my life without him being in it. I want to thank him for all that has done, even though he might not know it.

Hoorah- Rest now brother. I'll carry your slack on my shoulders. So Rest at ease Marine. Let this soldier in the Army help. All branches are the same, if you dont think so, put a marine and a soldier side by side and strike one and try to count how many fists hit you. I bet the count will be two.
