Thousands Honor Matt Maupin

Hat Tip to Blackfive and Victory Caucus

Posted By Laughing_Wolf

Soldier's Mom wrote me this weekend about the funeral of SSG Matt Maupin, letting me know that more than 4,000 people filled the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati for his funeral. He is home, he is honored, and his family knows that people truly care about him and -- most of all -- about them.

WLWT has a story and video here, the Enquirer an article here (and actually notes why the missing are important) and coverage of the funeral here, and WCPO has stories here.

Godspeed Matt. May the light shine down on your family, and they are blessed to know how many people truly care.

"....fair winds and a following sea" SSG Maupin. Thank God for you and those like you.
