Appreciation for “Marine’s girl”

A fabulous, heart-rending, honest, funny new voice in the blogosphere comes from the new blog by “Marine’s girl”. She’s writing out of someplace in Michigan, I think, and supports her Marine by posting many amazing, strongly antiwar things on her blog.
Last saturday night, she was up till 3:12 a.m., and posted her immediate reaction to the breaking news of the bringing-down of the chopper.
She must have had some terrible hours there, waiting to find out whatever she could about the identity of those killed.
Sunday, her Marine called her. You can read her really intimate account of that call at this post.
You can read a lot of other fine things on her blog, as well. Check it out and say hi to her.
