Imagine my chagrin when I found out he had been killed in April 1945 in the fighting on Okinawa. It got me thinking that maybe there was someone like Ernie covering Iraq and Afghanistan. I poked through the University of Indiana School of Journalism's Ernie Pyle archives where some shmuck claimed there was a guy named Michael Yon covering the wars just like Ernie. I half expected that Michael Yon put that link in and was trying to sell some something, but after reading just one of Michael's dispatches I was hooked. I should have gone to bed a couple hours ago but couldn't stop reading. Pulitzer is on the way. - Adam Margetts Mon, 13 Jul 2009 18:26:14 +0100
