Hope he pulls through. It tough going thru things likethis but with out the brave we would not have freedom. Will be keeping my mind on this let us know how he is doing.
Very sorry to hear that Mike, thoughts and prayers for Cpl Marteniz and his family.
that is horrible to say the least.........ridiculous IMO that we have our troops over there, F'n ragheads, it ain't a war or it would have been been over long ago.

well the good news is its only his legs. which means he will live to fish another day. Hope his family is doing okay.

War as we knew it many years ago just doesn't exist anymore. It's sad that a "conflict" can take so many lives to say nothing of all the terrible and lasting injuries. So sorry for your nephew's trama. He's #1 in my book!!
Did you ever stop to think....and forget to start again?
