    Default Death of a Friend.

    I just got word that a friend from another site passed on today.

    He was a USAF Pararescue jumper who was wounded in Afghanistan.
    1/3rd of his skull was replaced with titanium, but the infection set in and
    he fought it for 18 months.

    Now he has passed. Rest Well Lon! You were a good man!
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    A Deplorable!

    That is tragic. My sincere condolences. It always saddens me when another vet/hero passes.
    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.
