Have you seen this picture? This little girl’s whole family was slaughtered by “insurgents” about a year ago - she was shot too, but survived. Chief Master Sgt. John Gebhardt was the only one who seemed to be able to comfort her when she cried. I received the story in an email from Bruce Higdon, and checked on Snopes.com to verify its validity. The story is true. The Air Force Link article tells the whole story.
