Finally, a family can rest

Sgt. Matthew Maupin's parents can finally rest, though I know it was not the end they were hoping for. I hope though, it brings some closure instead of wondering every night what happened to their son.

The longer this war lasts, the more I wonder how many more of our greatest will be lost; and how long America will not fully grasp the price that such a small percentage of our population has paid. 4,000+ dead; over 30,000 wounded. Support your troops and their families, America!!

That's good to point out that the price is being paid by a small percentage of our population. I think so many people have no idea how much serviceman/women have sacrificed...some have been deployed more in the last 5 years than they've been home.
