Close to the bone

Decurion just lost 3 friends and comrades. See: http://castrorum.blogspot.com/2006/11/most-of-you-read-jens-lj-so-most-of.html

Many of us have been there, I offered:

Here's tae us
Wha's like us
Damn few,
And they're a' deid
Mair's the pity

When his wife (one tour in Iraq) posted the details.

I feel every loss, but some hit closer to home.

Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
My children love me , but they don't understand
And I got a woman who knows her man
Drive on, it don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin', drive on

If you have a thought leave it at Decurion's place.
