Orlando · When they reached the United States, Haitian immigrants Joseph and Daniela LeBrun had one goal -- their children would go to college and have a chance to live the American dream.

But in 2003, two sons dropped out of college to join the Army telling their parents they thought it was their patriotic duty. Jeff was sent to Iraq and elder brother Stanley to Korea.

On Saturday, the LeBruns, who live in Kissimmee, learned Spc. Jeff LeBrun had been killed in Baghdad when his military vehicle struck an improvised explosive device. He was 21.

"He was a really, really, really sweet, sweet young man," Daniela LeBrun said. "I am lost now."

KILLED FOR THE GREATER GLORY OF THE HALLIBURTON STOCKHOLDER

1. Who would have thought their sons might have been safer

if they would have stayed in the bloodbath of Haiti.

* knows not what they do.

3. I'm surprised that Haitian Americans can be as jingoistic as someone

born and bred in the USA. Dropping out of school? That is unheard of in alot of Haitian circles. To join the ARMY? Inconceivable.

4. They Died For Halliburton and BFEE War Profits!

it is so sad folks encourage their kids to die for the MIC.
