I'll never forget...

I'll never forget waiting for the back of that C-130 to open. I'll never forget the faces of those dozen or so men that were sitting inside, bloody and torn. I'll never forget stepping into that war plane and walking through them to carry out their fallen brother. I'll never forget taking him so he could be sent to his family and friends back in the states. I'll never forget each of those men touching him for the last time. I'll never forget the faces of those men having to fly back out to the front lines. I'll never forget that door closing and seeing that war plane back in the skies.
