You all have reason to wonder what the heck happened over there and why it happened to you.
I cannot begin to imagine what it was like. My brother Byron McQuinn was lost over there as well as my brother Leonard McQuinn Jr.(Marine). They always tried to keep stuff from mom and I but we could read and watch what was going on that the TV put out. Even though the media put their own slant on things, it wasn't hard to see you guys were going through your own hell here on earth. If it helps to talk, go ahead and talk. If you prefer to keep it to your self remember what you do say may help another understand what they need to understand about their own hellish time over there. Each action over there was a nightmare for those going through it. Sounds like there are more talking about May's battle because they are the one looking for contacts. If you have a story to tell or want someone to share their story get on this message board and unload. I would like to request once again that anyone with knowledge of Byron McQuinn get in touch with me. It would be greatly appreciated.
