to keeifers family
i live in columbus ohio and i feel ur pain and sorrow i have been a navy wife for 25 years and just yesterday watched a movie about a young man who went to iraq and died there and the impression he made on the people while the military took him home taking chance was the movie the soilder to was only 19. i have been to war in iraq and have never left the usa. My husband went over there and what familys are having to deal with on a mental scale is more than the public could ever imagine from a ohio navy wife to a child of 19 years old over there the mental appartaus is never ending. My husband has alot of mental errors from iraq and after 25 years we are divorced cause of the type of life the military puts into these soilders heads. Your child needs to tell his story like chance did that was done by kevin bacon. The public needs to more aware that this war is destorying our childdren not helping the iraq cause at all. I have three children a boy 27, girl 21, girl 15. To this day I still deal with the mental ascept of the mental wounds that come home from iraq and probably will for the rest of my life and so do my children and how they view their once loving daddy as a sick man cause he to had a heart like your sons and now has to live the mental affection from the iraq war but so do I. So in my letter to you your son has brought to light the etrue things that our children are going thru in iraq and the military needs to be more public with their true things instead of trying tosweep everything under the carpet to save their recuirement numbers. I feel your loss and your ons story will not be forgotten or sweept under a carpet he life had a destiny and by by his death he may be saving many other lifes in another way to bring to bring to light the truth. Your son was an angel and maybe saving somones life right now by his story. God uses people in very mystery ways and just maybe your angel your son is somone else angle right now. Thnak you sharing yoru story and maybe a new law will come from your sons life and maybe the military will know that our children in iraq need to be sure that they are capable of handling war over there cause in the end all the soilders have to come home and what will athey be like when they get here. Also to the men who did this to your son must not be of true mental normal staus either. So in your sons death I hope a true wrrrior emerges and I think your son was a warrior of the heart and his soul. He shares his sjtroy with the world and it is about time the turth come out about the war and the families that have to live the war but never go to iraq.
a friendly true mosther in ohio like you who grief your loss
thank you for your time
and thank you for your son and his true bravery to this jcountry and to other
