Pause and consider the toll of war
Mark/Lou/Ann: Thanks so much for the idea and the professional job you did in reading the names of the 93 soldiers we've lost in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Listening to each of those names certainly gave all of our listeners a chance to pause and consider the toll of war. Again, it was a privilege to partner with each of you on this. Thanks for the excellent job you did! Your friend in Christ, Mark
Thoughts for the families
I thought the way the names were read, slow and somberly, really made you think about the fact that theses young people were no longer with us and the sadness their family must be living.
