I know everyone has their own challenges in life but Marine Lance Cpl. Joshua Bleill has more.  This story reported at CNN shows off Bluetooth technology to make amputees get around a little better.  Watch the video.  It would be better to not need this kind of technology but it's great that someone is investing in the time to make this technology happen.

Lang says that he was in the same Humvee with Josh Bleill. "I remember this incredible explosion," Lang recalled. "I thought I was dying. I knew what was going on. I knew it was an IED." Lang's leg suffered multiple fractures when he was thrown out of the Humvee.

Two Marines including Sergeant Brock Babb of Evansville and Lance Corporal Joshua Hines of Illinois died in the explosion. "They were outstanding Marines," Bleill said as tears rolled down his cheek. "To give your life for another man is the ultimate sacrifice. And that's what they did," says Bleill.

I can't say enough how thankful I am of our volunteer soldier who lay their lives on the line for our freedom.  Thank you, thank you.  The next time you are at a restaurant and notice a soldier sitting in the next booth, buy them their meal.  Or, if you see a soldier trying to get somewhere, offer them a ride.  Even if this kind of charity costs you money or convenience, it's a small price to pay compared to what the soldier might be forced to pay.
