Given my military background it's not suprising that I spend a little time at different military blogs. This story http://www.military.com/blog/blackfive concerning SPC J.R. Salzman especially touched me for some reason though. Maybe it's because he's such a good looking kid; maybe it's because I was a speciallist too and he makes me reminice; maybe it's because when I look at his picture I see that same cocky self assurance and good humor that I see in my second oldest and I can't help but think that in a few years I could be in the same place his mother is in now. I don't know what it is for sure but I find myself praying for him often.
He's in the hospital having surgery daily now to repair the damage. He has a difficult road ahead and will need our prayers, but he seems to be a young man of great courage. Read the above site, then read his own at http://www.jrsalzman.com/weblog/ and see if you don't agree. Maybe you too will find the Lord impressing you to pray for him.

Thanks for sharing this, I signed his blog. He definitely deserves our prayers, daily.
