A SPECIAL REQUEST FRUM COOKIE....

Well Sir...as most of my regulars readers know, I've been honored to have met a wonderful couple who've made the ultimate sacrifice that parents can make for their country...they lost their son Clint in Iraq.

I've posted about Clint before, in fact several times, because to me...he's a hero who stood up for what he believed in and...most importantly...fought for it, and his country.
