May God be with the family and friends of this HERO.

Something I appreciate about this article is that it focused alot on what Spc. Scott achieved during his term with the military and did for his country. Our soldiers should receive so much more recognition than they do. It is sad day when this world loses someone like Spc. Scott. God Bless his family.
