Well said. Our armed forces show so much bravery! My heartfelt condolences to the poor family, it's hard to even contemplate what they are going through. RIP.

Thank You Private Young and Rest In Peace.

I am currently reading a book called "An Ordinary Soldier" written by Doug Beattie and he basically tells it how it is from serving in Northern Ireland to Afghanistan, pulling no punches.

My heartfelt condolances go to Private Youngs family and friends.

We're coming to make some noise!
