I read about this fine young man on another site and would like to add this information: His parents have an interesting way for you to honor Ross's memory: A military memorial service is being planned at 2 p.m. Sunday at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Knox (PA) with full military honors. His remains will then be transferred to Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, D.C. His family has suggested for anybody who wishes to make a memorial donation to send something to a service member overseas, a veteran or local service member and present it as a gift from PFC Ross McGinnis. Gifts to his unit may be sent to: SFC Cedric Thomas 1st Platoon, C/1-26 IN Task Force Blue Spader APO AE 09390-1537 It never gets easy reading these memorials and testaments to our fallen warriors.

What a Warrior, what a MAN! Another of OUR Soldiers we won't forget. Condolences to and prayers for his friends and family.
