AMERICAN HERO DIES IN COMBAT: Former Arizona Cardinals safety Pat Tillman was killed yesterday in combat in Afghanistan. Tillman made headlines when he walked away from a $3.6 million contract in the wake of September 11, 2001 to serve his country. He joined the Special Forces and was posted to Afghanistan.

The rest of my day is going to be awful.

Peggy Noonan, among many others, has written about him in the past. There was also an article in the American Spectator.

He was more of a man then most of us will ever live to be.
