Tribute to Sgt. Bradley Crose and Special Forces killed in Afghanistan just 6 months after Sept. 11th put us in a distant war. These soldiers upheld the Warrior's Code to "never let a comrade fall into the hands of the enemy". Real heroes live on. Never forget the sacrifices made in the name of freedom. God bless our troops.

Leave No Man Behind Not just soldiers, but real heroes - in real heroes you will find For only one or for a million - as the stars forever shine They both paint a picture - they leave no man behind I'm sure it broke their hearts to leave their families But these soldier's call to duty was to keep this nation free Someone's son, someone's father, someone's husband, now they're gone Gone but not forgotten, for real heroes, they live on Jumped into the line of fire, gave all they had to give For it was their heart's desire to see their comrades live A question of their honor, they upheld the Warrior Code The truest of real heroes, for they carried the load From the battlefield, in the frigid cold Strength and pride revealed, as their story was told Don't give up the fight, let real colors shine through Ol Glory, stars and stripes, the red, the white, the blue (Spoken Word) Looking eye to eye Seeing heart to heart They all know We're all coming back We leave no man behind Copyright 2002, Iris Harden & Thomas Brooks http://www.survivingyellowrain.blogspot.com We were honored to write this song in memory of Sgt. Bradley Crose and others who died while trying rescue their comrades. Bradley was only 22 years old, deeply religious and kind-hearted. He proudly served his country and paid the ultimate price in the name of freedom. We were able to give a copy of this tribute song to his mother. She should be very proud. Sgt. Bradley Crose was and will always be a real hero. Never forget the sacrifice. We Leave No Man Behind.

Authors Bio:

Songwriters, advocates, Iris and husband, Tommy Lee reside in North Augusta, SC. Poisoned by toxic mold & trichothecene, they're dedicated to creating a public awareness of the dangers of water-damaged buildings. Forced to abandon home & worldly possessions, mycotoxins destroyed their health. With nowhere to turn for medical care until much later, the illness progressed to advanced stages. Anyone dealing with a serious mold issue feel free to contact them for support and direction.

ABC News, EMagazine, Healthy Living, Walton Independent and many other publications have shared their story and activism.

As they battle their own tragedy, they've given it to God, as He is the reason they're alive. Surely it's to be a voice for the voiceless and hope for the hopeless. Iris arranged the 1st mold health seminar in her area in Nov. 2007. In 2008 as both victims and educators they met and gained support for indoor mold awareness from Governor Sonny Perdue. September was proclaimed Indoor Mold Awareness in Georgia.

Music is what remains of the life once shared. Just before diagnosis, they released a heartfelt 911 tribute CD, Surviving the Storms, Truckin' On and other songs of life, love, laughter, hope and inspiration. Music was their life. They miss long hours in recording studio, writing, singing and producing music.

They feel insurance companies acted with malicious negligence by failing to act. Advised in 2006 Iris & Tlee suffered life-threatening injuries that could cost them their lives without proper medical care and a safe home. The fact that this all took place is not even in question.

Due to initial systemic poisoning, they now have extreme hypersensitivity, as well as now mcs, multiple chemical sensitivities causing them to move 12 times since 2005. Twice they've had to start all over, leaving everything behind. They do their best to still serve the Lord in music and ministry, and also do advocacy works in an effort to save others the pain the endure daily.

July 27th, 2010 they did an interview with WJBF, Anchor Mary Morrison, who took great interest in toxic mold illness. Hopefully , lives can be saved and safer homes be built.

All the documentation, both medical and environmental can surely be a help to preventing someone such pain and loss. It is time to break the mold of deceit, greed and lack of mold education.
