The helicoper that crashed a couple days ago in Afghanistan killing all six on board was based from Moody AFB in Valdosta.
It hasn't gotten much coverage because of the Iraqi war and you don't ever see their names and pictures as war dead hero's on tv like their brothers and sisters fighting in Iraq. Please don't forget our troops no matter where they are at. This town has been hit hard but it is pulling together getting even stronger.
here are a couple articles about the forgotten war heros..
The first deals with the female pilot that was killed talking about how a Valdosta class had written her and she replied back to each student. The recieve her letters a week before she got killed..
