Taking Care of Ben
Posted on October 21st, 2007 In my own particular idiom Claire
This is another wonderful article from A Soldier’s Mind. Terri is currently trying to get an address where people can send donations of clothing, toys or needed items for this little boy.
Excerpt:
We all are pretty aware of the kind, compassionate nature of our Troops, even in the midst of a warzone. Here, as well as on other Blogs, endless stories of the generosity of kindness exhibited by our Troops, towards the Iraqi people have been told over and over again. When I saw this story, I knew right away it was one our readers would be interested it. How did I know that? I know how it affected me, how it filled me with pride and gratitude to have such loving and giving people serving our Country. This is a story about a young US Soldier and a young autistic and hyperactive Iraqi boy, whom they call Ben. This is a story that will tug on your heart strings, like it did mine.
The entire article is worth reading and is not only a very touching story, but it is also a wonderful and truthful demonstration of the heart of our Troops. Click HERE to read the entire article.
