After His Own Loss, A General Salutes Two Brave Marines

Everyone should read the speech given by U.S. Marine Corps Lt.Gen John F. Kelly, currently Commanding General of Marine Forces Reserve Command. As you read this it is not bluster from a Marine General, but from a father who lost his son four days before in Afghanistan. Lt. Gen Kelly gives an excellent example of the caliber of the brave men & women currently fighting to keep us free. To bad America never knows about the sacrifice of our brave men and women in uniform.

This speech is given by a dedicated Marine, but also a grieving father.
