Iraq - rated PG-13
Our nephew, Richard Ivy, was injured in Baghdad this week from a car bomb. He was hit by a piece of burning flesh. His sergeant got a concussion from a flying rib. I cannot imagine the emotional impact of realizing that the “shrapnel” was not metal, but human. We are thankful they are still with us. We are thankful that they are bravely doing their work and keeping the aggressors away from our shores.
