SSgt. Jason Rogers
28 years old from Brandon Mississippi
2nd Combat Engineer Battalion, 2nd Marine Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force
April 7, 2011


"The loss of Jason Rogers is going to make this world an emptier and lonelier and colder place," said childhood friend Brandon Winfield. "I could write a War and Peace-sized story of the kind of person he was. Some people have it — the room just seemed to be dizzier and brighter with him in it."

SSgt. Rogers was KIA on April 7 by an IED while on patrol with his unit in the Helmond Province of Afghanistan.

"He was doing something voluntarily that he loved to do, and he felt like he was making a difference and doing something that made other people proud," said friend Derrick Brownlee.

But beware the dark side. Anger, fear, aggression.

The dark side of the Force are they. Easily they flow,
quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the

dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.

Consume you it will.

December 14, 1922 - February 25, 1984


SSgt. James I. Spurrier, Jr., aka Junior J. Spurrier, distinguished himself multiple times during WWII. One of which, almost single handedly capturing the village of Achain, France, won him the Medal Of Honor. But after the war, SSg. Spurrier had a tough time. Trouble with alcohol and run ins with the law. All due to PTSD.

You can read more about SSg. Spurrier here and here. And if you, or someone you know, is suffering with PTSD there is help.

Just another day in paradise

I woke up this morning and that was a sign that it was going to be a good day. I am adjusting to retired life I guess. Funny how you find things to do around the house. Still waiting to see if I am approved for SSDI. I am feeling pretty much back to normal after my surgery and stroke. Forgot a few things, but that is for the best I guess. I went to Lowes and bought a new mail box and put it up. I got tired of hearing my wife tell me how tacky the old one looked. Hell it looked ok to me, it just leaned a little. I told her I was the boss around here, and she said you are, but not when something needs to be fixed.. bull ssss
