Louisiana Soldiers Amongst The Fallen


From WGNO:

NEW ORLEANS - At least two of the 18 fallen soldiers honored Thursday by President Barack Obama were from Louisiana.

The bodies of 24-year-old Sgt. Patrick Williamson of Broussard and 21-year-old Pfc. Brian Bates of Gretna, in suburban New Orleans, were on the plane met early Thursday by the president at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware.

Paul the BB lists more names of troops who died recently in Afghanistan and Iraq.
