I bade final farewell today, to a man I had never met. Even though I didn't know him it was a sad goodbye. The hardest part of the whole ordeal, was watching the Soldiers that knew him try to hold back tears.
Saying goodbye to a Hero is always hard. It doesn't matter if you knew them or not it is an emotional experience. While SSG Daniels was not lost in combat, he fought a battle for his life. His life was ended by a terminal illness. Dr's gave him weeks to live and he defied them, repeatedly. My heart goes out to his wife and children, may they find peace knowing that their hero does not have to fight any longer. RIP SSG Daniels
