Congrats to the winner. The more I stare at that picture, the more I realize just how profound it is. I know those 3 brave men (and all fallen heroes) are hanging out in paradise right now and we are all eternally grateful for their sacrifice.

Hey guys thanks for the congrats. Please remember these guys, who they are, and what they did.

I must confess that the photo is a very emotional one for me; I went to boot camp and infantry school with one of those men, and another was my team leader when I first got to the fleet. I went out on all 3 of their medevacs. They were all three good friends of mine. Really miss those guys.

Excellent choice. Very emotional, and a reminder that we are finite in our physical body. May their families be proud, and bless these fine men as they rest free from further harm, in the palms of our creator.

Thanks for sharing a personal moment.
