    I am Sean's father Gary. Sean was trained at Camp Pendelton and he was in 1st Marines Thundering 3rd division Lima company with H&S on his last tour. Thanks for the nice comments.

  • Idiot. You absolute, fucking, stupid idiot. It's you and people like you that make this world so unbelievably screwed, not the men and women who are over there fighting for something they believe in. I may be anti-War on Terror, but I'm also Pro-troops. These people have something they believe in so strongly they are willing to die for it. You believe so *strongly* it's wrong, you post defamatory, evil remarks about a good man, and laugh about it. Grow a set, and either put up or shut up.

  • You should know that the troops serving in the war did not start the war, and many are simply doing what they need to survive - If you were thrown into a fire, you'd fight to put it out, too. Don't detract from what these young men and women are doing simply because you can't accept a bureaucratic stuff-up, which is (in my opinion) what the War on Terror is. My friends, both Australian and American, have given life and limb in this war. You can't judge til you've walked in their shoes. RIP Sean
