Marine Son’s Photo

Re the Associated Press photo of a Marine on Page A11, April 3: This picture is one example of how this war hits close to home; it is of our son, Cpl. Jeffrey Davis. Jeff graduated from Eagle Rock High School in 1999 and joined the Marines shortly thereafter. Last November he married Candice Johnson, also from Eagle Rock.

We are very proud of his dedication to the Marines, duty and his love of country. In his e-mails, he states that he is very proud to be a Marine and to be in Iraq.

Although you are not always able to get the names of troops in your photos, for those of us at home to see their pictures in the paper is amazing, comforting and a great honor.
