I do not know Paul or his family but I'm from the Ft Wayne area and when I saw his picture in the paper, it was a painful reminder of the price some pay in this war. It is so easy for people like me, who don't know anyone involved in the war, to forget how costly and painful it can be, we have no idea what it's like.
What a beautiful young man... it's so sad to think that he's gone at such a young age, and then on the other hand, you know that he probably wouldn't have it any other way.
To Paul's family, I am so very sorry for your loss, you are in my prayers. God bless.
