There is a new Dietz print
"Ghosts" - something like that.

My soldier boy kid posed for it and got a free print.

SO, one of those 2 div Sryker guys is my kid.

Wish I could figure out which one.

4. James Dietz.
I thought he mostly did Civil War prints, but he apparently expanded to this war.

He is pretty well known, I know of him, but I collect civil war stuff.

He is a pretty well known war artist, I guess the best way to put it.

Anyway, my kid posed for the Ghost work - and got a free print.

Not sure which one is him, and he is back in theater, so I can't ask.

I am sure framing the print, though. It is kinda cool, I think.

5. I have the print.
Troy's personal effects came yesterday, it was there. His will, etc...

He did tell me about it - cause he gave it to me before he went back, but I never saw it til last night.

I think he is third from the bottom - kneeling. That is my opinion.

It is Ghosts (of something) Stryker Brigade in Iraq - it has to be a pretty recent Dietz work.

7. Thanks,
I just pray that will not be the only thing that comes out of this shit.

If my boy dies, and this is the third time he goes back to that hell hole, you have not even begun to hear the screaming.

How dare they do this, how dare they!!!!
