Kasee267,
Thank you for correcting our error about Mr. Saczek. We have corrected the original post and appreciate you stopping by and pointing this out.

Our story here made no attempt to list the names of the five who died in the shooting incident as you list in your comment.

Also, with all due respect, you are way off on your comment about “using soldiers’ deaths to make” a political point. Did you read our post? Did you read the death count story? We abhor that too. THAT IS OUR ENTIRE POINT! We freely admit in this story (both of them) that we are using the absurd to demonstrate the absurd. You have to actually read the post.

Please stop by any time and add your comments, pro or con, they are always welcome and we do sincerely appreciate the correction regarding Mr. Saczek.

Please get your facts straight about these soldier’s deaths, the 5 who were killed in the shooting incident at Camp VICTORY, Iraq on May 11 (according to the DOD releases) are:
Maj. Matthew P. Houseal, 54, of Amarillo, Texas.
Sgt. Christian E. Bueno-Galdos, 25, of Paterson, N.J.
Spc. Jacob D. Barton, 20, of Lenox, Mo.
Pfc. Michael E. Yates Jr., 19, of Federalsburg, Md.
Navy Commander Charles Keith Springle, 52, of Wilmington, N.C.

and Spc. Lukasz D. Saczek, 23, of Lake in the Hills, Ill., died May 10 in Nangarhar Province, AFGHANISTAN, of injuries sustained from a non-combat related incident.

While I abhor either side of the political spectrum using soldiers’ deaths to make any sort of political point? If you’re going to do so, please have the courtesy and respect for these men who lost their lives, and their families, to post correctly the information About their deaths.
