I knew none of them,

Yet I feel I knew ALL of them.

We always said we had to go out,

but there was no guarantee that we'd come back.

No greater love has he, who would give up his life for another.

A very moving tribute. God bless the United States of America and ALL (don't forget one) who serve us proud and risk their lives on the line for us every day.

Last February, Lt Bryant was kind enough to invite my car club for a tour of the facility. He couldn't have been nicer. I was sickened to receive the information that their plane had gone down.

This was a very moving tribute.

I am getting old enough to realize that life is very fragile and transitory.
