Title: Andrew Olmstead, R.I.P.

Date posted: 2008-01-07

David Weinberger mentioned this last blog post by Andrew Olmstead, the first soldier killed in Iraq in 2008 (Andrew was killed on January 3, 2008). Andrew kept a blog with the very droll title:

Obsidian Wings "This is the Voice of Moderation. I wouldn't go so far as to say we've actually SEIZED the radio station ... "

This blog post is one that he wrote and asked to be posted in the event of his death. Andrew Olmstead's voice is powerful and worth reading ... more than once.
