"Gen. David Petraeus, commanding general of the Multi-National Force — Iraq, had recognized a soldier memorialized at Fort Bliss on Wednesday for excellence. Another was remembered as acting with a heartfelt kindness that convinced suspicious and war-weary Iraqi residents to support coalition forces."
There was laughter at the memorial, as well as grief, for CPL Jeremiah D. Costello, SPC Joseph P. Kenny, CPL Keith V. Nepsa, and PFC Raymond N. Spencer. Worth a read to see why.
