Who is Specialist Jorge Estrada

Don Surber brings our attention to Specialist Jorge Estrada. Out of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines who have served in the War on Terror, why should Specialist Jorge Estrada be singled out? Because he wasn't killed by Al queda terrorists, or Iraqi "insurgents." He wasn't even killed in a training accident. No, his story is more tragic than that. He served honorably and with valor and survived his tour in Iraq, it was leave in hometown, USA which claimed the life of this fine man. Don is rightfully outraged by the lack of media coverage of this murder.
I expect the nation to care about Jorge Estrada. He cared enough about us to enlist.
Rest in peace, Jorge.



I always told my junior Sailors that the most dangerous thing I would ever have them do was go on leave or liberty. I remember very few shipmates lost to enemy fire or shipboard mishaps. However, I long ago lost count how many died off-duty. Many of our military members enlist to escape a less than perfect background and to improve their lot in life. Unfortunately, when they go on leave it is usually back to where they started at before enlisting.
