Out of the Frying Pan

A Soldier Stands Alone

A Soldier Stands Alone

A home was invaded, a friend was taken.
This man who once fought for his country now again has been called to defend his home.
This man fought a good fight, standing his ground alone as best he could,
while the others continued to gather their forces.
One man against many, to save his friend.

Finally faced with too many to battle, he called a lone soldier’s plea.

All soldiers, far and wide, will turn to see that no man is left alone to fight.
No matter his past, he is committed to helping his own,
even if it be just one he calls friend.
Others will come to his aid.

No Soldier Shall Stand Alone.

Even from distant lands, friends will stand to help.

So many will come forward.

Those who start these things seldom think of the casualties…

The dead…

…and the wounded.

On April 18th, 2006, the first strike took place.
Onlookers weep as literally thousands of bodies float to shore…

…retrieved from their watery grave by police…

Where shall it end?
Why did this terrible thing happen?
And why should we come forth?

Why?

A lone soldier stands for a lost friend.


This lost friend… his name is Dirk.

Until his freedom is regained,
I stand beside Tor and PartyDrunk (er.. I mean PartyDude)
(Dude, you can drink coffee now, it’ll help you to sober up!)

No Soldier Shall Stand Alone!
