Marines Not Home For Christmas

"when the rich ones make the war, are always the poor persons who die" We have had a large number of Marines that live in my area that were killed in action or disabled. Disabled is such a generic and understated word for what is the truth. I would associate disabled with ADA requirements. The truth is loss of limbs, burned, scared, maimed, loss of sight, sanity etc. Churches have adopted marine families to help take care of basic needs that most of us take for granted. I know of a wife who has to drive her husband almost two hours to and from the VA hospital for treatment. This doesn't include her having to wait for the treatment to be completed. All totaled it's 4 to 5 hours a day. All because of a RPG (rocket propelled grenade). Who watches the kids? The church volunteers for now. How many are like this? Another friend has to tell marines families that their son or daughter aren't coming home. The proof of death photo's shown families are graphic and a memory I would want to have of my son. Not all good comes with war, but a war based one man's grudge or so called misinformation is unforgivable. My prayers are with the families and the soldiers on the ground.
