The Real Winner of the Nobel Prize

BELOW IS THE REAL WINNER OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE!
John Gebhardt's wife, Mindy, said that this little girl's entire family was executed. The insurgents intended to execute the little girl also, and shot her in the head...but they failed to kill her. She was cared for in John's hospital and is healing up, but continues to cry and moan. The nurses said John is the only one who seems to calm her down, so John has spent the last four nights holding her while they both slept in that chair. The girl is coming along with her healing.

He is a real Star of the war, and the hero of peace.

This, my friends, is worth sharing. Go for it!!
You'll never see things like this in the news.. Please keep this going. Every person can make a difference in the life of someone, even if it is one little girl

CPL TJ Stirling's Funeral

On behlalf of CAV members our very sincere condolences to the family and friends of TJ, and to his fellow Falcons.

====================================================

T.J. HAS FOUND PEACE

By Billy Willbond

Suicide is a touchy and unspoken of subject, that’s a fact.

Why would anyone dare to write a poem about that?

Soldiers who suffer from P.T.S.D. yes they long to be free.

Saying my buddies they were killed. Why wasn’t it me?

Some hide their pain inside and on their MC’s they ride.

They raise monies for AIDS ORPHANS and ICROSS.

Through the wonderful work of each CAV Chapter Boss.

But, in 2003, in Afghanistan, young T.J. suffered a loss.

Cpl Beringfinger and Sgt Short in the Iltis they died.

T.J. was wounded, but by a miracle he had survived.

He carried his pain hidden deep in his heart.

It was too much to carry he just had to depart.

Let us join with his comrades and have good words to say.

About TJ and his family and his friends, as we pray.

Let us hope that other soldiers that suffer this way.

Are saved by the OSI system at the end of the day.
