I'm telling you who I am, only to show the truth and value of my words. I'm SFC Giles, US Army. I was at one time SPC Rodriguez’s Supervisor. I don’t hide behind an anonymous name. And I grow weary of hearing of people speak about SPC Rodriguez's sacrifice like it was cheap. I knew this Soldier and he was a great young man. He was well liked by his fellow Soldiers for his integrity, honor and willingness to defend others. He is a hero not some cheap political tool to discuss about by some no name individuals. I ask all those who post here NOT to discuss their political views here, but remember this great young man. My sorrow goes out to his family. SPC Rodriguez is a Hero. All who knew him will miss and grieve for him.

On Army Specialist Jaime Rodriguez Jr., 1987-2007
