    These photos are remarkable. My cousin ships out in march, he's a marine. So, these really hit home for me. It takes a lot of bravery to go out there, and I have a lot of respect for it. Thank you for sharing these.

    Wow....what a moment. It's sad that humanity resorts to war and uses our men and women as tools of killing.
