Tribute to the Sacrifices of U.S. Troops Since the War on Terrorism Began

*Please note there is a spelling error; it is Cpl. Rachael Lorraine Hugo, (not Cpl. Rachel L Hugo) that gave her life in October 07*
*Sorry the font's a little hard to read, it came out different!*
Since the war on terrorism began in 2001 thousands of U.S. troops have lost their lives for the freedom of many; tens of thousands more have been wounded-physically and mentally, and thousands will always bear the memories of war. This video is basically to say thankyou to the entire U.S. Military for their unrelenting sacrifices and that not one of them is forgotten. This video highlights the stories of some of these heroes.
In the video:
-Maj. Tammy L. Duckworth
-Sgt. Bryan Anderson
-Sgt. Frank Sandoval
-Staff Sgt. Keith Matt Maupin
-Pfc. Thomas L. Tucker
-Pfc. Kristian Menchaca
-Cpl. Pat Tillman
-Navy SEAL Michael A. Monsoor
-Sgt. Rafael Peralta
-Cpl. Rachael L. Hugo
-Spc. Carrie L. French
-Master Sgt. Evander Andrews
-Sgt. Jennifer M. Hartman

To think, it's disgusting that there are actually people out there that would disrespect the sacrifices of these honorable people.

I know you can't read this Tucker but everyone misses you. Seth took your death HARD but you should know Mel is holding him together. I hope we can get him and Nick up to Oregon to visit you soon. I know they need to go and that it would do them good to get to say goodbye to you. You and Menchaca will forever be heroes in our home. I'm so sorry you had to go through what you did and I pray everyday your sacrifice isn't forgotten. Thank you, Thomas, we love you and miss you terribly. Jenna

Man that was hard to watch. These brave young people risk EVERYTHING so that the rest of us can live in peace and freedom ... and what do many of us do with that freedom? Waste it away watching crap like American Idol. THESE people should be our idols!

Timothy Bowles was 24- just wanted to let you know of a correction. I was good friends with him in tech school. Thank you for making such a wonderful tribute to these fallen men and women. Never forget the sacrifice they made for us to live free.
