Mulazam Manion
1st Lt. Travis Manion proudly served and died a Spartan's death in Iraq. This is a great story about his service with his fellow countryman and the grateful Iraqis who fought along side him and continue to fight in his honor, so make sure to take some time to read it. Manion's family will be following the comments over at INDC Journal, so please leave your condolences there. 9 Responses To "Mulazam Manion"
WHERE DO WE GET SUCH MEN?* Who will protect us when the warriors conclude Blue America has no use for them? Well done Lt Travis Manion. Rest in Peace. *Rear Admiral George Tarrant in "The Bridges at Toko-Ri" by James Michener Those who serve our country deserve the ultimate respect and our eternal gratitude. #2 - Posted by: Trigger on September 21, 2007 01:55 PMThat made me feel... proud. Proud of Lt. Manion, his family, Bill @ INDC for doing the write-up, and of Frank J. for taking the time to show the story to us here. #3 - Posted by: AlanABQ on September 21, 2007 02:12 PMOver the long years of this war I've become familiar with certain among the more than 4000 fallen warriors in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's impossible to know all the names, but knowing some of their names honors the rest. It never gets any easier to read these stories, but it's not supposed to be easy. It's vital that we not turn our backs on these Americans. #4 - Posted by: PaleoMedic on September 21, 2007 02:28 PM“God of our fathers, who by land and sea have ever lead us to victory, please continue your inspiring guidance in this the greatest of all conflicts. Strengthen my soul so that the weakening instinct of self-preservation, which besets all of us in battle, shall not blind me to my duty to my own manhood, to the glory of my calling, and to my responsibility to my fellow soldiers. Grant to our armed forces that disciplined valor and mutual confidence which insures success in war. Let me not mourn for the men who have died fighting, but rather let me be glad that such heroes have lived. If it be my lot to die, let me do so with courage and honor in a manner which will bring the greatest harm to the enemy, and please, oh Lord, protect and guide those I shall leave behind. Give us the victory, Lord.” General George S. Patton nuff said! #5 - Posted by: on September 21, 2007 03:08 PMHe has been welcomed into Valhalla by valiant warriors from centuries past. He is their brother. #6 - Posted by: Jay on September 21, 2007 06:30 PMWould it be possible to delete Jimbo's comments above? Although this may seem counter to the concept of free speech, there should be such a thing as good taste, which this cretin is obviously lacking. Rest in peace, LT; you have made me once again proud to be an American. [Done. Some people. ::shakes head:: -Ed.] #7 - Posted by: Joseph on September 22, 2007 01:26 PMWe are not worthy. #8 - Posted by: Ripper on September 23, 2007 12:12 AMThanks much for honoring that earlier request. Something like this is not politics, it is honoring the memory of one whose bootlaces I would not be worthy to tie. #9 - Posted by: Joseph on September 23, 2007 11:09 PMPost a comment
