   Thank you for sending this to us, cafba.  BRAVO to Josh Forbes.   
      
   Made me think of the poem "Just a Simple Soldier".  Also of my grandson   
   James,   
   who told people when they asked what his Daddy did:   
      
   "My Dad helps keep the good people safe from the bad people."   
      
   Our son did 3 tours, Rwanda, Bosnia and Kosovar ('94; '98; '99-'00).   
      
   We should be able to send the Jack Laytons of this country [wherever our   
   lads are   
   shipped overseas to].  Put them right in the front lines!
