Great article for Memorial day. Thanks to all the veterans out there, especially the ones that paid the ultimate cost.

One of Isbell's best songs, and one of Wright's best stories as well, though both have plenty of those...

One of the saddest songs ever written. I am a couple of years older than the guys in the article. I'm assuming that I played ball against the older brother of the Thigpen guy mentioned in the article though. The Florence area lost at least 2 guys in Iraq within a year.

Thanks for posting the link to the excellent article. I had heard the song but did not know the actual story behind it.
