Dedicated to a soldier

Blackfive has been covering the case of Specialist David Mahlenbrock, who died recently in Iraq. Mahlenbrock wrote a last will and testament in Iraq, and he requested that Toby Keith's American Soldier be played at his funeral. Now Toby Keith has written a new song, dedicated to David. It's a fitting tribute for a brave man who gave his all for freedom.

In another post, Blackfive talks about the real America, where people express heartfelt thanks to fighting men, go out of their way to buy them drinks and help them along their way.

It's quite a change from the days of Vietnam.
