The L.A. Times has an amazingly powerful and heartbreaking story about James Blake Miller, the soldier with that faraway look in his eyes and Luis Sinco, the man who took the above picture. It's really sad, tragic in its scope, and if you're the religious type I think Lance Corporal Miller needs your prayers. I don't want to talk any politics in this post because this is really a story of human suffering, surviving and the true cost of war. But I will say "They're taking care of us over there- we should take care of them back here."
Anyway read the articles and watch the slide show, you won't regret it. And it is Veterans Day.
