True Hero PFC Derek McConnell On the OWH ( operation write home ) blog featured a story about a wounded warrior.  PFC Derek McConnell was injured on July 23, 2011.  He sustained injuries by an IED.  More information is on Caring Bridge's website.  It is written by his mother.  Its a bittersweet journey that she's going through.  Take a few minutes to read and sign her guest book.  Walking with my Wounded Warrior I found my video about my True Hero.  I was really stoked that I still had it because I thought I lost it forever when my Dell laptop broke.  I hope you enjoy this video.  Please continue to pray for our military men and women; and their families. in memory of JPM 12.06.77 ~ 07.24.07

At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn We remember them. At the beginning of the year and when it ends We remember them. As long as we live, they too will live, for they are now a part of us as We remember them. When we are weary and in need of strength We remember them. When we are lost and sick at heart We remember them. When we have joy we crave to share We remember them. When we have decisions that are difficult to make We remember them.
