Soldier's Remembrance

I was going to post my first rubbing this week, but this just happened to pop into my reader from one of my favorite blogs, Relentlessly Optimistic:

This is the grave of Sgt. Leonard Matlovich, the first gay service member to speak out against the ban on gays in the military.  What a beautiful last statement to leave for the world, an eternal condemnation of the hypocrisy that was, and unfortunately still is, the military's treatment of gay soldiers.
