My best friend in the whole world wright now has a daughter in the armed service's she sent me this article, it had to be a concern to her and it's a bigger concern for me because I have a daughter who wants to work in Iraq once she graduate's from collage. Even though she will work as a civilian she will work under U.S.Military supervision. Sorry but my daughter will take her degree in engineering and design state side. Thank you Terri Henry.....

We shared the same birthday and it hurts me to know that she is gone... I didn't want to believe it at 1st but I had too. I want to do my part plus ++++ in getting justice for Lavena. I got nauseous and cried hard when I watched the video. I guess I wasn't expecting that and I'm so sorry. I believe in prayer, I believe in repentance but for some reason I feel like the coward(s) that did this to her doesn't have a chance. So Lord please 4give me for I am just angry with what they did to my friend. I'm furious. I got out the Army before my time. I couldn't stomach it anymore, I hate the Army and how they treat your family. Please reach out to me let me know what I can do because the petition doesn't seem to be working. I will faithfully donate to Lavena's scholarship fund....for I do serve a God that's worthy to be praised all day everyday and I now he will bless your program. I guess the military picked the wrong family..for one they didn't know that you are a God fearing family and no one.. not even the government can get away from him.. They also didn't realize the kind of person Lavena was and that she would have so much support from friends family to strangers....IF YOU ARE WATCHING THIS VIDEO... I PRAY THAT GOD HAS MERCY ON YOUR SICK SOUL BUT YOUR TIME WILL COME TO PASS! Hi Mr. and Mrs. Johnson

It seems as if they became used to their actions and have gotten bolder over years of coverups. They know how to do it so well and without a conscience. Do they realize these are human beings here with families or do they think they just have families who are worthy of respect and decency. This madness has to cease. I will keep Spc.Johnson's family in my prayers and also pray for justice because these coverups have gone on too long and if something doesn't happen now, it will continue . Something definitely has to be done. I am very angry at the people who did this to her and this story touched me in so many ways that I will continue to follow the progress and support the family and there fight for justice.

I have been reading all day about stories of military and cover ups and its making me so angry inside. Especially this story, that has all the evidence of an obvious rape and cover up and it makes me sick. This beautiful young girl just trying to do whats right and serve her country, giving the ultimate sacrifice and is repayed by this. KBR has a huge record of horrible things, and what makes the military think that out of all the crazy things like rape, murder, etc.. that goes on in america wouldnt follow to places like iraq and afghanistan. I will never understand why things happen like they do, and probably will not ever, until i do meet god. I really hope he helps me understand why all these things can happen to such great people in this world, and yet the horrible people stay on top and continue to reign. I suppose we can ask spc johnson herself when we get there though, and again my heart goes out to the johnson family. I will pray for yall every day! After reading this story, I am in shock.

What is the Co Cdr saying about this? What about her battle buddy? 'A lie can never live .' 'what is done in the dark will always come to light.' 'Regardless of rank, if you see something wrong and don't fix it, you have just set a new standard.' 'Justice delayed does not mean justice denied.' does anyone have a email address for her father?
