Good one Marty - even though we don't know them personally our hearts are moved by their sacrifice and the loss of another young life to such a fruitless cause. I totally get your daughters tears.
Cheers

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Re: Corporal Scott James Smith
I'd like to tattoo 39 on Gillards and Abbotts foreheads. No one has ever won a war in Afghanistan. The geography and the blind fanatacism are against you. Unless we are prepared to fight a total war with all that that entails, we'd best be out.
It's past time. Bring our heroes home.
Good poem, mate.
