Sad news for the family of Sgt. Matt Maupin, the Ohio soldier who was MIA in Iraq since 2004. DOD has informed the family that remains found near Baghdad were positively ID'd as being of their son. Remains were apparently found last week, but were only ID'd in the last few days when the DNA results came in. Not the homecoming hoped for, but at least the family will know where he is and that he will be brought home for a proper burial.

Treat everyone you meet with kindness and respect, but always have ready a plan to kill them.

Yeah, it's really sad. Had a feeling that would be the case all along, but one could only hope otherwise. God, I hate this war.
