November
24, 2006: U.S. Army Special Forces captain Jeffrey "Toz" Toczylowski
was killed in action in Iraq a year ago. In his will, he left $100,000 to
defray the expenses for a party to be held, in memory of him, in Las Vegas. The
30 year old captain was buried at Arlington on November 14, 2005. The party was
held November 11, 2006, and was attended by 125 family and friends. Toczylowski
believed in what he was doing, and left this message behind to emphasize the
point.
"Don't
ever think that you are defending me by slamming the Global War on Terrorism or
the U.S. goals in that war. As far as I am concerned, we can send guys like me
to go after them or we can wait for them to come back to us again. I died doing
something I believed in and have no regrets except that I couldn't do
more."
