82nd Airborne

Damn.

My heart goes out to the families, as well as to their comrades.

I picked up a copy of the local paper this morning with a headline on the front page about it. So far the names of four of those who lost their lives have been released.

There will be a memorial in May, according to one of the articles I read. I love, yet hate, those things. Love them because of the powerful tradition, hate them because of the necessity of having them. I attended way too many of them in 2004 and 2005.

So incredibly sad...
