a spot of grass....

RangerXLT8 · June 7th, 2006

I got this in an email today and have to share. The spirit of Americans is in-destructable, especially when we see something like this.

"I hope the picture will go through for you; of this Army soldier in Iraq with his "tiny plot of grass" in front of his tent.
It's heartwarming!

Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked his wife to send him dirt ( U.S. soil), fertilizer and some grass seed. When the men of the squadron have a mission they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil to bring them good luck.

He?s even cutting the grass with a pair of a scissors. ?Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and think about the little things that we take for granted.
Upon receiving this, please say a prayer for our soldiers that give and give (and give up) so unselfishly for us." ~ unknown source

you guys know the song "where'd you go?" by Fort Minor. If you see the music video, its actaully about soldiers in Iraq and its an amazing song. Well most of its rap, but thats just my taste.

But that's pretty sweet.
