My little brother is only 19 years old and serving in the us airforce in Operation Iraq Freedom. I miss him more than I could ever express in words. Not only is he my brother, but my friend. I pray everyday for his safe return, along with every other man and woman fighting for our freedom. My children can lay their head down at night because of the men and women like my brother. I know the hurt that the families feel, because I feel it now, and will continue to have that empty feeling until they all come home. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!!
