6 years ago tonight in Afghanistan (8/6/11), 31 Special Forces heroes (30 warrior men and 1 canine warrior ) were KIA in Afghanistan when their helicopter (Extortion 17) was shot down. They made the ultimate sacrifice for everyone's freedom. Please take a few minutes tomorrow to pray for their families. I don't think anyone can ever know the pain their families go through. As a member of the military, it is my job to make sure these brave warriors are honored not just tomorrow, but every day. Rest easy brothers. Thank you for your service. You are missed every day.
