A loss

i'd never heard of Col. Ted Westhusing until today, but I am mourning for him. His story cannot be ignored, and I strongly encourage everyone to read this article. It seems that very few people give much thought to the concept and practical application of honor anymore. Even fewer consider it a necessary component for their very existence. This story has gripped me and stolen my words. Col. Westhusing, his family, friends, peers, students and our country are in my prayers.
