Pat Tillman, R.I.P.
Without diminishing the sacrifice of the many almost anonymous men and women who serve, we pause to salute Pat Tillman who gave his life for his country in Afghanistan on Thursday (local time there.) Pat was an NFL defensive back with a great on-going career (and a $3.6 million salary) with the Arizona Cardinals, who put it all on hold to join the Rangers, part of the Army's elite fighting men. The media will undoubtedly report on Mr. Tillman's loss.
