Parents of fallen troops in surprise visit to Iraq

These brave souls have paid the dearest price of all and they are still paying because they believe the cause to be right and just. May God bless and keep them for they are heros too.

Parents of U.S. troops who died in Iraq have quietly slipped in to the Middle East nation to offer support to its people and to American servicemen and women.

Coming on the heels of Sen. John Kerry's widely publicized comment suggesting military service is a refuge of the lazy and uneducated, the parents say they also want to rebut the Massachusetts Democrat.

"I am spitting mad at John Kerry for insulting our troops. Duck and run was his specialty in Vietnam," said Gold Star mother Debra Argel.
