Re: Sad News - FIRST Robotics Alum KIA in Iraq
Team 696 also sends our thanks for his service and our condolences to his family and friends.
When we are at robotics competitions and just living our lives in general, we usually fail to appreciate the cost at which it comes. To live in a nation where we can express ourselves, choose our own path, and live a life of freedom is a privilege. So great of one that we may never fully realize it. Unfortunately, this doesn't come without a cost. Thousands of honerable men and women have given their lives, but not in vain. They have honerably done so. And for this, America (and much of the world) owes them a debt.
