to God, Queen and country in honor of those that we'll now only see in our dreams.
As many may already know, the Royal Marines from 40 Commando have lost 14 men - too many men - since May. Our hearts go out to the families and friends of these brave men. My husband and I think of them often.
Always after reading the news reports, I dread the next time I speak to my husband, wondering if he'll have known the most recent fallen hero. It will not have been the first time. Even if he doesn't, it's difficult to see the pained look on his face. The pained look mixed with a deep yearning to have been there.
And so we'll drink another toast to the fallen. May they rest in peace.
