little coffins
About half way to the back, I noticed most of the head stones were very small. Then I looked at the dates on the headstones and understood why. Most of the dead were children. As I turned around towards the entrance I saw all the dead children I had walked past without noticing. It was very disturbing. I got out of there as fast as I could and pushed it out of my mind.
I haven't thought about that for almost 20 years.

Steve Miller, American Hero, Dies At 86
I wrote a short piece a week or so ago in response to Tony Snow's ridiculous comparison of the Iraq war and the Battle of the Bulge in WWll. In that story I mentioned my friend Steve who landed at Normandy and fought through France, Belgium and into Germany.
Steve Miller died this past Saturday the 24th of June 2006.
I lost a friend, his family lost a great treasure and America lost a piece of her soul
