Private Hicks was killed in Iraq on Friday

Pvt. Corey L. Hicks, 22, of Glendale, Ariz., was killed Friday May 2, 2008 in Baghdad by a roadside bomb, the Defense Department has announced. His death was the latest of at least 4,071 who have died since the war began in March 2003. http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/babylonbeyond/casualties

Private Hicks sacrificed half a century of his potential life on earth to help win the war in Iraq. We should all recognize his sacrifice and commemorate his service to the U.S., just as all the other dead should be recognized and commemorated.

We salute you Pvt. Hicks.
