Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked his wife to send him dirt (U. S. soil), fertilizer, and some grass seed so that he can have the sweet aroma, and feel the grass grow beneath his feet. When the men of the squadron have a mission that they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil..to bring them good luck. If you notice, he is even cutting the grass with a pair of scissors. Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and think about the little things that we take for granted. Upon viewing this, please say a prayer for our American soldiers that give and give (and give up) so unselfishly for us. |

| WASHINGTON – President Bush stopped on the White House South Lawn to pose for a photograph with two Marines who served in Iraq — and planted a kiss on the head of each. After climbing down from his Marine One helicopter, Bush walked toward the White House, then stopped and approached the Marines, one of whom was in a wheelchair. The president greeted Lance Cpl. Patrick Pittman of Savannah, Ga., and Lance Cpl. Marc Olson, who hails from a town south of Chicago. Bush directed aides to turn Pittman's wheelchair around. Instead, Pittman stood next to the president for the photograph. They were joined by Olson's mother, Pinky Kloski. Bush had a few words for the two Marines as they stood on either side, then kissed each on the top of the head. Kloski said the two had served in Ramadi. Earlier in the day, the president had traveled to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point to speak about the military and strategy during his tenure as commander in chief |
