January 9, 2006- My name is Bruce Liles and I am writing from a little town in southern Indiana called Birdseye. It's in the SE corner of Dubois County about 20 miles from Jasper.

Soldier



Last month a soldier from Dubois county was killed in Iraq. His body was transported from the airport in Louisville to his hometown. The route taken went in front of my grandmother's house. There had been a call for people to line the road to honor him. My grandmother couldn't stand by the road, but she sat by her front door for an hour and a half waiting for the procession to pass.

Everyone is hoping this is the last time this happens.
