Moultrie - Husbands, sons, fathers and friends have been lost in the war effort, five of them from South Georgia. Now, a commander of one company is home, enjoying time with his family and pleading with South Georgians not to forget those overseas.
In just six days, First Sergeant Kevin Roberts lost eight men under his command. All killed while trying to protect their homeland. Now, Roberts is asking for support of all military person ell serving, even if you don't support the war.
....
But his work on the home front is almost complete, and Friday, he'll be going back to Iraq. But before he goes, he wants to send a message: Don't forget about those serving in the war. He says, "Four years (after 9/11) it's starting to dwindle down, but there is still a war going on over there, people getting killed everyday."
....
First Sergeant Roberts asked me to thank everyone for all the support they've given the 48th Brigade and other military person ell, but asks for continued support through prayers and displays, like hanging yellow bows and ribbons and proudly displaying the American Flag.
