Will, I am so sorry for the loss of your friend and the grief you are feeling.

I posted this a minute ago in Politics about a good friend of mine I've lost. It's a completly new sensation for me to have someone die because of war, and it's really effected me more than I thought it could. I feel like I myself have been wounded - not to be selfish, but this is new to me.
I realize this is a bit of a downer, but have you ever lost anyone to war or conflict? If you'd like to say some words about your someone, maybe this can be like a way to pay respects and share fond memories about those who made life better before they left.

To answer your question...yes. Given my age (56), there would be little chance that I didn't. There have been many losses, some of which occurred when back in country. I think those are the most painful. I'm not sure that I can participate in this thread without creating great emotional anguish to myself. I'm going to hold back for now.
