PFC Fous was participating in a reconnaissance-in-force mission when his unit formed its perimeter defense for the night. PFC Fous, together with three other American soldiers, occupied a position in a thickly vegetated area facing a wood line. PFC Fous detected three Viet Cong maneuvering toward his position and, after alerting the other men, directed accurate fire upon the enemy soldiers, silencing two of them. The third Viet Cong soldier managed to escape in the thick vegetation after throwing a hand grenade into PFC Fous' position. Without hesitation, PFC Fous shouted a warning to his comrades and leaped upon the lethal explosive, absorbing the blast with his body to save the lives of the three men in the area at the sacrifice of his life. PFC Fous' conspicuous gallantry and extraordinary heroism at the cost of his life were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit the US Army.<br /> <h4> Iraqi War Memorial<br />IRAQI WAR MEMORIAL</h4> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikrHhBQp4I9rt_TsV312maeo_VGQ0jnIxr-gDau_aPfKSV32b2cUAmlK1aY152V5i5AXdXUnqXTh-cCHtBgfKy5jCbV12WnPn2ip_Dy7S3LCajlB4IvS_puHM0-B-Z4NhoomikRMPeU68/s1600/iraq-war-memorial-central-cigh-school.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikrHhBQp4I9rt_TsV312maeo_VGQ0jnIxr-gDau_aPfKSV32b2cUAmlK1aY152V5i5AXdXUnqXTh-cCHtBgfKy5jCbV12WnPn2ip_Dy7S3LCajlB4IvS_puHM0-B-Z4NhoomikRMPeU68/s1600/iraq-war-memorial-central-cigh-school.png" /></a></div> Two casualties as of August of 2011<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.vuomaha.com/2013/12/we-honor-our-history-ron-abboud-state-champions.html" target="_blank">Mulhair, Staff Sergeant, Jeremy Williams – Last Attended Central 1988</a><br /> 1st Squadron, 7th Calvary Regiment, 1st Brigade, 1st Calvary Division, Army<br /> Killed in Action in Iraq November, 30, 2006<br /> Age 35<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.vuomaha.com/2013/12/we-honor-our-history-ron-abboud-state-champions.html" target="_blank">Clamens, Staff Sergeant, Lillian "Lilly" Cobbin – Class of 1990</a><br /> 1st Postal Platoon, 834th Adjutant General, Army<br /> Killed in Action in Iraq October, 10th, 2007<br /> Age 35

Doomsday might be closer that we thought.  This volcano has enough power to destroy the entire country!  This is a very scary situation. The park's “supervolcano” has the potential to erupt with a force about 2,000 times the size of Mount St. Helens, according to a new study. So because this thing could erupt any time between now and 60,000 years from now…if you aren’t religious you better reconsider that quick and start praying!! </span></div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span></div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The new findings were discussed at the <a href="http://fallmeeting.agu.org/2013/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">American Geophysical Union</a>, where a team of scientists used a system of seismometers to measure the underground cavern beneath. Seismometers are instruments that measure motions of the ground, including those of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_wave" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">seismic waves</a> generated by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthquake" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">earthquakes</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_eruptions" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">volcanic eruptions</a>, and other <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_source" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">seismic sources</a>. <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span></div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The cavern measures 55 miles by 20 miles wide and anywhere from 1 to 9 miles deep. At that size it likely contains between 48 and 153 cubic miles of molten rock. As University of Utah professor Bob Smith <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-25312674" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">told the BBC</a>, "We’ve been working there for a long time, and we’ve always thought it would be bigger... but this finding is astounding." Dr. Jamie Farrell explained, “To our knowledge there has been nothing mapped of that size before." </span></div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span></div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Scientist believe that the volcano has erupted at least 3 times in the past, they say about one every 700,000 years. If the Yellowstone volcano were to erupt it would be “catastrophic”. Soil samples reveal that the last time it exploded, it had covered the entire continent in ash, rivers of lava for hundreds of miles and the smoke cloud was screwing with the planet's climate for hundreds of years. </span><br /> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><br /></span> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">For more information on publishing in this publication please contact <a href="http://www.ronabboud.blogspot.com/">Ron Abboud</a></span><br /> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><br /></span></div>
