I saw this on the news as well.  A very nice gesture.   :thumbsup:

I understand that the fund is over 700K now.  While it is nice to know that families will be cared for and that they will have their education paid for, I am sure that they would prefer to have their daddies.  I doubt that 5 year old Marcus cares that he has 350K in the bank.  He would rather play football with Daddy and the dogs.  :no:

What a very generous response from so many people to the families of the slain soldiers. I agree Macrobug that he'd rather have his father but I'm happy to see so many contributing so he'll have a good financial beginning.

It was a very generous gesture from the PoW to the soldiers' families.
