afghanistan war

We hear every day that freedom isn't free, but as we get ready to head into the three day Memorial Day weekend full of swimming and cookouts, the families and friends of five Fort Bliss soldiers who were killed earlier this month came face to face with just how much freedom really costs.

Once again, an El Paso family is grieving the loss of their loved one in war.  This time, it is the Diaz family who is mourning their son, brother, father, fiancee, Staff Sergeant Christopher Diaz.  And once again, the sacrifice of one of our brave troops was overshadowed by a group of hate filled people.
