This is literally breathtaking when I see the report, and my son is not yet deployed:
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Four U.S. Marines were killed in combat in western Iraq’s Anbar province, the U.S. military said Sunday.
The Marines, who were assigned to the Regimental Combat Team 7, died on Saturday. Their identities were not released. They died in the western province that is a focal point of the Sunni-dominated insurgency.
Will I make it through my son’s deployment? Pray for their families tonight.

Over 130 of my son’s buddies were deployed from Camp Pendleton two days ago…he for whatever reason is remaining in the U.S. for another six months, but eventually will be deploying as well.
Stories like this break my heart, and it doesn’t really have anything to do with my son being a Marine too. It would break my heart anyway.
God bless your son, my son, all of these guys.
