Old Friend

Our group has lost a lot of friends since 2001.  Those who remain have a closer bond than ever before.  One year ago, somewhere around this time, I was one of the first to learn of our friends murder in Afghanistan.  In early March last year an American soldier killed 16 Afghans in a rampage.  Two weeks later, at a checkpoint being managed by one of the Afghans being trained by Billy's group, allowed SSG Wilson to walk pass only to shoot him 3 times from behind.  It fucked us up a little and we haven't forgot our other friends, especially those not listed who did make it back somewhat unscathed.  For the day, I've changed some Twitter images in honor.
