Prayers are OK but some actions to keep this from happening again are the "lighthouses." Supposedly it was Ben's suggestion as a memorial to be built by survivors of a shipwreak.

Just because said the man is not necessarily evil does not mean that I feel he should be excused. I too am a veteran--of Viet Nam--and I feel for every man, woman and child affected by this.

I think that by calling the man evil we might actually on some metaphysical level vindicate his actions...this should NEVER be allowed. Each person chooses their own path and are responsible for any consequences. In my mind the question is: is the man evil--no; is he a traitor--definitely, and that carries its own sequence of consequences, as anyone who has ever served knows.

We will have to wait and see what a Court Martial brings.

From Wisconsin: 467th Medical Detachment & 1908th Combat Stress Unit -2 killed, 4 wounded. http://www.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/69420037.html. Seems all were from small towns. I cannot add anything meaningful to what has already been said.

Being a vet of the war in southeast Asia this saddens me that we have lost these fine people, I pray for those lost and wounded daily.
God Bless our nation.

The ages and backgrounds of these troops is what affects me.
