It's one of the most saddening things I've ever seen or heard of. The flatbed trailer carrying some of the soldiers and their wives was following another flatbed of the same across the tracks and got held up by traffic ahead. They were stranded in front of the oncoming train. Totally heartbreaking. Showofsupport.org has a list of all of the soldiers involved. [/quote] This is so sad...My prayers go out to the families.

Four dead. :-(
DALLAS -
Dozens of wounded warriors were involved in a horrible accident Thursday afternoon in West Texas.
The accident happened at about 5 p.m. in Midland during the "Hunt for Heroes" parade. A big rig that was carrying the veterans on a flat bed trailer was hit by a train.
There are conflicting reports about the crossing arms. Some witnesses said the arms were not coming down as the truck approached the crossing.
