Bad Day

Aug 14, 2008 4:46pm
Yesterday afternoon I found out that a good friend of mine had been killed the day before. I am still kinda in shock to be honest. I've never had anyone I know die before, other then a few family members that I hardly knew. It's just such a horible thing and such a crappy helpless feeling right now. He was driving with his dad and another passenger and lost contol of his land cruiser and went off the road and rolled it. He was killed and his dad and the other passenger were hurt pretty bad. He was a really good guy. He had just got married last summer and built a house. This whole thing is just so crappy.

Wow.
Marines die, that's what we're here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever. And that means YOU live forever.
