The most poignant thing I've ever seen on the Internet.
If you're a US citizen, especially one with any ties to military personnel (Marines particularly), you may want to make sure you're alone when you view this. I don't want to give too much else away
It's a photo essay that won the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography, and rightfully so.
Take in each photo and read the caption before moving on to the next one.

If you're left wanting to know more, here is the associated Digital Journalist Story, the original Rocky Mountain News feature, and an animated slide show with voiceover.
As I write this, I realize I'm fortunate That I'll soon be honoring a former US Marine on Father's Day - and he'll be there.

Wow, Kevin. Amazing. I saw some of the pictures before. I'm so anti-war, but pro-military. There is a house in my neighborhood with the little flag with the gold star...I drive by it every night on my way home from work. It is with great sadness that I watch the events of the war unfold, praying that it will end sooner rather than later.
