Another military death in Afghanistan! Lance Cpl. Alec E. Catherwood, 19, of Byron, Ill., died on October 14.
U.S. and Illinois flags are to be lowered to half-staff immediately and until sunset, October 23.
Every time I receive e-News from the State of Illinois I hate to read of one more death in that part of the world.
I support our troops. I do NOT support this country’s decision to engage in a war that could drag on for 15-20 years before we finally do pull out. This country still does not understand the nature of the war we are in there.
Think back to what it must have been like in this country in 1775-76. We, in the U.S.A., are free today because “insurgents” refused to give up.

Respect the lowered flags. Don’t just drive by. Pause and think about the significance of the lowered flags.
