I never post links to stuff I find on the Internet, but I'm going to make an exception for Major Andrew Olmsted who died on January 3, 2008 in an ambush in Diyala province Iraq.

This is his final post. (http://andrewolmsted.com/archives/2008/01/final_post.html)

There’s some more information about him here. (http://blogs.rockymountainnews.com/denver/iraqiarmy/)

Please respect his wishes. "I do ask that no one try to use my death to further their political purposes."

They shall not grow old
As we that are left grow old

Age shall not weary them
Nor the years condemn

At the going down of the sun
And in the morning

We shall remember them.

Sounds like a good man. Shame.
