Dear Congressman Bob Filner,

Recently a U.S. Marine killed an insurgent terrorist in a mosk in Iraq. Please call or communicate to our president that our brave Marine was fighting for us and may have saved himself and his buddies and the embedded reporter by killing this enemy terrorist. Some of our soldiers have died who didn’t react as quickly and decisively as this young Marine. Please communicate to the president that this young marine should receive a Silver Star for the courage he displayed under extreme pressure. This young marine is no less deserving than John Kerry was when he killed a wounded fleeing enemy combatant in Vietnam.

Any effort you can make to help this young marine fighting for freedom in Iraq will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Lincoln Pickard
