My meager salute to Bob Howard

Rendering Hand Salute,

Pass the flag to me, Sir! All secure, rest easy, Sir!

Although I had previously never heard of Col. Howard I know the USA has been blessed by having him and his kind serve their country. I causes me concern for our future and the effect the national broadcasting systems have on our country that I have not heard one mention of a true American hero. This compares poorly to the days of coverage entertainers and sport stars received when they die. The major networks should all be preparing documentary on such a person, wounded 9 times! I would guess these were not minor injuries which were documented so he could get out of the country.

May God bless Col. Howard and his family.

UJ,
I understand your dismay with our news media. However, it's only fair to say that I heard about Col Howard on the NBC Nightly News.

Good for them. Occasionally they get one right. There's only one radio / TV guy I really trust anywhere, he's here in Atlanta and I know him personally. But I don't really trust the people who writes what he reads.

I guess I have trust issues with most public figures and organizations.
