In the city of Lafayette, CA there is a hill that is protesting the Iraq war by adding a cross to it every time a soldier is killed.

The current number is 4122...

I wish this war was for the preservation of Democracy but I have to wonder...

    This is a memorial... not actual graves. I might take some more of my pics and make a story from them.

    My son is in training in the USMC. Let's pray and hope that his name qualifies to be here. Great picture!

    I live in Lafayette and drive by this memorial everyday! I finally stopped very early one morning and captured a few of my own along with a respectful prayer for the troops. God bless them.
