True Grit

I was just introduced to Dawn Patrol, a great link to the heart of American military members and their families.
 "Graduation Night - Moon over Yusufiyah" by Greyhawk, via a story from Robert Stokley, is the all too real story of a real family. I stand in awe of a young woman who overcomes devastation to bring honor to her family. So many curl up and would use any one of her reasons, as an excuse to give up. This is an example of the grit that has made our country strong and free. Where are the journalists?
