SOMEONE TOLD ME THIS STORY
Just this past week I was talking with a gentleman who spoke of his son's tour of duty in Iraq. This is part of what he told me:He really made an impact. He was at a checkpoint and a villager came up to him carrying a child. She had been bomb burnt. The villager said - and this is to a young kid who happens to be a soldier - "Please, sir, can you help?" My son got aid for her and she was sent to a hospital ship where her leg had to be amputated - it was that bad. The father/farmer saw the way his daughter had been treated and went back to his village and said, "The American military is nothing like we have been taught." Everyone of the men in that village became an Iraqi Freedom Fighter.
