Box Tops for Education  "Tip My Hat Off "By John Powell This is from one of our staff member's brother that is in Afghanistan I apologize for not writing more the last couple of days. We have seen steady business over the last three days. Last night, we had our first real significant US casualty. It was really the first significantly mangled extremities that we have seen. Up to then, it had been primarily gun shot wounds. Without getting into the details, this soldier and his buddy had run across a roadside bomb. With significant injuries and a seemingly unbelievable amount of pain, he had the ability to still take care of his troops. While lying in the ER with much more severe injuries than his buddy, he called out "are you OK, just tell me your OK." At that moment, I was in awe. Here are these young guys out doing what it is our bosses have instructed us to do. They come face to face with the full brunt of what our enemy has to offer and all he can think about is how his buddy is. I think it says something for the type of people fighting in the military today. I have heard debates about the soldiers of today versus the soldiers of the past questioning the quality of the soldier today. Wars have been different and deadlier, but never question the quality of soldier that is being put on the front line. Day in and day out they don't know who or if they and their buddies will be coming back from their mission, yet they continue to fight. And when the day comes that they are dealt a forceful blow, they think not of themselves but of others to ensure they are OK. Tonight, I tip my hat to all those soldiers that put their lives on the line in the call of duty.
