Something to Think About During the Nobel Peace Prize Award Ceremony

Posted on October 9, 2009 by Michael Froomkin

Four-year-old Paige Bennethum really, really didn't want her daddy to go to Iraq.

So much so, that when Army Reservist Staff Sgt. Brett Bennethum lined up in formation at his deployment this July, she couldn't let go.

No one had the heart to pull her away.

According to NBC Philly, Sgt. Bennethum, 30, is expected home next July.

    Salute to those willing to sacrifice their lives to protect the rest of us. And salute to their families and friends too! They are all heroes to me
