31. Dammit this is so tragic
I hate seeing people that I could have went to high school or college with die in this stupid war. These last two deaths are hitting me hard because these women were both my age, it's just so sad.

This past Saturday I met two soldiers who were about to be re-deployed to Iraq in a few weeks...they went out to the bar with me and a group of my friends and we all had such a good time together. When we parted ways I gave them both hugs and told them good luck and stay safe over there. I never got their last names and on some level I didn't want to know just in case I ever come across an obituary like this. But those two guys will definitely be in my thoughts while they are over there
