<At the request of a Facebook friend - We are asking everyone to say a prayer for the US "Darkhorse" 3rd Battalion 5th Marines and their families. They are fighting it out in Afghanistan and have lost 9 Marines in 4 days. IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE IT ON EVERYONE'S PAGE...Even if its only for an hour, come on guys show your support! I am HONORED to re-post this! Thank you to ALL of "OUR" Service men and women!!!.
