A Minute's Remembrance, Please
Sun, 05/25/2008 - 10:55pm — Sarah
Ladies and gentlemen and others, a moment of your time, please, in memory of one man who died at 22 -- and whose story stands for unnumbered others.
His name was Merlin German. He enlisted in the United States Marines at the age of 17. Within a year he was in Iraq. He spent nearly three years setting an example of survival -- one even his doctors had trouble believing; and then, one more surgery, one more graft, became one too many.
On Memorial Day, let him be remembered.
