PFC Michael Dyer Has Died

Kim du Toit informs us that PFC Micheal Dyer has died as a direct result of his service in Iraq, may he rest in peace.

I know what you know about Michael Dyer, he's the American GI photographed carrying the Iraqi child to safety during the early part of 2003. I surmise that he was a decent guy who volunteered to serve after his nation was attacked on 9/11. Decent guys are often adversely effected by the horrors of war, some things once experienced can't be un-experienced, I guess some of those things followed Michael home. I hope he and his family can find peace.
