Matt & Uncle Jimbo,
Nathan Hubbard was killed on Wednesday in the Blackhawk crash. He is the second in his family who gave his life for this Country.
Please see the article hereClovis California is a very pro law enforcement pro military city in Central California. This is truly a loss for not only the Hubbard family but also for the Community.
I hope that you will be able to spotlight the Hubbard Family on your Blog.
Thank you for everything you do.
David E
Clovis, California
Thanks and condolences to the Hubbard Family. We will remember them with you.
The Soldier's Angels were doing some hero hob-nobbing as well as candidate watching at the VFW Convention.
Bob at Confederate Yankee is just bein' cruel to the "editors" over at TNR.
And to end on a laugh the Dissident Frogman, a Frenchman who didn't get the cheese-eating surrender monkey memo, does a highlarious video teaching a course on ammunition and weapons to AFP regarding the magic bullets pics. Remember AFP is Agence Frances Presse. He boomstick slaps 'em. Warning guns, bullets, cartridges, brass and a terrorist all make appearances. Vive le France as I have said before.

Gutwrenching grief.
Something that will cause even more grief I hear is the movie "No End in Sight". Has anyone see it here? The tinfoils are dancing with glee.

Keyboard warning: Do not attempt to drink any beverages while watching Frenchman's tutorial on ballistics. Your keyboard thanks you.

We will pray for this family. This is so awful, there are barely words to describe it. Our hearts break when we lose such great men.

Separate post for the Hubbard family... Prayers go out to your family, which has given more than its fair measure to this country. May God console you and help you get you through this.

Thank you for the link. We so enjoyed the opportunity and I was completely shocked to run into the two medal of honor winners. That, the heroes from Afghanistan and Iraq and meeting LTG Caldwell, et al was even more exciting than the candidates.
Our condolences to the Hubbards. I think an Angel is on the case, but I will double check.

I live in the Central California area as well. South of Clovis, but it's not so different from where I live. This is not your usual California.
Farms and ranches are a dominant feature and leftism exists, but much more quietly and circumspect than in other areas of the state.
This man joined the Army AFTER his brother was killed in Iraq. Theres a special kind of metal inherent in such families.
God Bless the family and friends of this warrior.
Rest in Peace, Soldier.

FNC talking head just said that the third brother of Hubbard family is also in the US Army and currently serving in Iraq. Also, he was part of the response unit that went to the crash site to search for survivors.

I am so sorry for the Hubbards-we appreciate what you have given:(

AFP would need a coffee full system enema and purge before they could get back up to speed.

It broke my heart to hear the story of the Hubbard's. The PGR is ready and standing by in California's Central Valley, if requested. Clovis, CA is one of the most patriotic cities around. The citizenry, cops, firemen, and city workers of Clovis are truly second to none! I'll be there rendering my heartfelt gratitude and utmost respect, to this US Army Soldier, a true American hero.
To the Hubbard Family and their numerous friends-
May the love of Jesus surround, support, and comfort you in this most difficult time.

Other than a heartfelt "THANK YOU!" to the Hubbard family, words fail me when discussing the enormity of their sacrifice.
Damn! Just Damn!

Just posted this over a CY:
"I am writing five of The New Republic's seven advertisers - VISA, General Motors, British Petroleum, Ford, and Allstate - to ask if they want their good name associated with a magazine that smeared our troops. Whether the false reports were unintentional (incompetence) or deliberate (slander), is it worth paying to support these acts to reach a shrinking audience of 60,000 subscribers? (Copy to your board of directors.)
"Looking at a copy of TNR, it is a high cost production periodical - 50 glossy pages - yet subscriptions only gross $1.54 for mail and $1.15 for online customers. The news stand price is $4.95, but I am probably the only person who has ever bought one.
"By focusing on the declining subscriber base and the outrageous mendacity contained in Baghdad Diarist, we may cause advertisers to rethink their patronage of TNR."

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Hubbard family and friends for the losses they have suffered with the passing of these two fine brothers. May God keep the remaining brother safe.
