Indeed - RIP all and my thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends, and colleagues left behind.

Here in Canada, we are mourning the death of a brave Canadian soldier, killed while on duty in Iraq assisting the Iraqi and Kurdish Peshmerga troops in training, who along with three other Canadian soldiers were mistakenly shot at by Peshmerga troops last Friday.

Those in the military are often out of sight and out of mind until tragedies such as this hit home and remind us.

God bless them all.
