"Patrol Base Georgetown was recently attacked by Taliban forces. Lance Cpl. Daniel Lagoze shows us how the Marines fought back." That is the official description of one of my fellow combat correspondent's video for Marines TV. There is something the description doesn't mention nor is it mentioned in the video itself - Lance Cpl. Daniel Lagoze took shrapnel to the face and continued filming when he regained his orientation. You can get an idea how close the mortar landed at 3:17 of the video. Lagoze is fine with a minor war scar and the Marine who got flown out is alive and recovering in Landstuhl Regional Medical Facility I have been told. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Ec5YBDQuH_kAwesome job staying focused on the mission Lance Cpl. Lagoze and the rest Patrol Base Georgetown.

I have a high res copy if you want me to send it to you. It is an honor that you are hanging my art in your home. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

That just makes me speechless. I am very grateful for the men and women of the armed forces and never forget that they keep our country great.
