Another Loss

Justin lost another friend in Thursday's attack. Dustin was only 19. As you can imagine, Justin is having a difficult time right now. Soldiers who have returned home often feel guilty for their safety when comrades are being killed. While I haven't talked to him, I'm sure Justin is experiencing this right now.

We are assuming that Michael Martinez and Dustin are two of five soldiers killed in an IED explosion reported in the news. As of right now, there is no news of more losses in Justin's unit. We are afraid that perhaps more bad news will come in the next day or so.

Please be praying for Dustin's family and the Martinez family as well. Please also remember the guys who have lost these dear friends.
