One such blogger, a gruff and often profane officer (Capt. Chuck Ziegenfuss, C/2-34 Armor), was injured by an IED. He was on foot patrol and an informant led them into what appears to be a trap. He blown off a bridge and landed upside down in a canal, where the weight of his body armor would not allow him to right himself. Another officer jumped in and saved his life.
Now he's in Walter Reed Hospital recovering from his various burns and injuries. He's been chomping at the bit to blog again and so he sent this message thru his wife:
Great, now I'm surrounded by a bunch of Virginians!

Notes to self:
1. "July is never a good time to visit DC - very humid."
2. "When falling off a canal river bridge wearing body armor, it is never smart to fall in head first."
You can talk about our President, his politics, and his family, but you can never talk about his character. I met him face-to-face today and I will protect him as well as I protect my own.
His wife says, "Yes, we met President Bush today. He is an AMAZING man! As human as we all are... and genuinely cares about the American people. I will not go into detail about what we talked about, that will be up to Chuck. Let's just say it was a day we will never forget. If you do not support Bush, that is your choice... please do not post your opinions (if they are negative) on this blog. I do not want a political debate. My husband met his Commander in Chief - and the honor was all ours."
