This is Marine Sgt. Glen Martinez pictured with his wife, Sgt. Melissa Martinez. Glen was on his second tour in Iraq when he was killed on May 2nd by a roadside bomb. Chris and Glen went to high school together back in Monte Vista, and they were both on the wrestling team together. Chris will be going back to Monte on Monday night with his brother, John, to attend his funeral services on Tuesday. I thought we would honor his memory by dedicating a post on our blog to Glen. May the brave men and women serving in Iraq be watched over while they accomplish their missions, is our prayer. Thank you Glen and Melissa, for your selfless sacrifice. Melissa, our deepest sympathies and prayers go out to you today. We honor you both.

Darn. That is depressing. Sorry guys. I am so grateful for the freedoms we have that they are fighting for.
