Deepest condolences to Lt. Boyes family, and deepest respect to Lt. Boyes himself. To the rest of you, I dont care about your political beliefs, this is not the place to debate it. Show a little respect to Lt. Boyes and his family. If you dont support the war, there is a place for that and you can discuss it there. This is a story about 1 man and his family. Grind your axe someplace where someone cares. Rest peacefully Lieutenant Boyes.
