The Cost.

I was going to run through the events of that day in my mind. I’ve been thinking about this post for days. Agonizing over it, really. What to say? What to relate? How do I best put my thoughts and feelings into the proper words… But after a few days of muddling through it, it struck me that’s not what it’s about. I could tell you what my experience was, I could lament and go on a tirade regarding the past decade of american history, I could have abstained entirely and let this day slip past without so much as peep. But I wanted to do somthing fair. I want to do something right in regards to 9/11. I want to pay respect.

Wether I bow my head in sorrow,
or hang my head in shame.
I do this thing to show respect
by never forgetting your names. – Matthew Corbin.

*Special thanks to Foxnews.com and antiwar.com for the original lists which i attempted to edit to the best of my ability. Given the enormity of the task, i know i missed some things. This list does not include military suicides or the injured. The page can’t handle anything more, as it is it takes 10 seconds or more for what i type to show on the draft.

  1. This was really great Matt. But are you aware that the list does not include Pat Tillman who was killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan on April 22, 2004? I wonder how many other soldiers deaths go unrecognized and unhonored solely because they were not killed by the enemy? Those soldiers are every bit heroes as their comrades who died in active combat with the enemy.

    • A good catch, indeed. I imagine there’s a ton of names left off this list due to friendly fire incidents. As i said, there’s no suicides listed in there, no injured, it would appear no friendly fire incidents, and definately not much in the way of any casualties at home. It’s imperfect, but it’s what i could scrounge together while maintaining a little sanity. If anyone wants to add to it i’m more than happy to have the help on that note. Every single one of these men and women deserve any and all credit for the sacrifice they made regardless of how they made it.
