Did everyone see Chrissy Schmid talk about her hustband Staff Sergeant Olaf Schmid's, who was sadly killed in Afghanistan.
Got to be one of the most moving things I have ever seen on News, what an incredible woman.
Sorry cannot find a link..
was she the lass with dark short hair, can't say i concentrated but she seemed rather jolly iirc
tails, the only link I can find is the sun website:

The video clip on the news last night of what she said, showed what an incredible women she is.
jesus, looks almost as if it hasn't hit her yet, hope she gets the support she deserves. seems almost daily now that some poor sod gets a knock on the door telling them that their loved one aged 18 to 30 is no more. 👿
lad i was in training with took him on his commando course said he was a great bloke 🙁 very sad
Absolutely brought me to tears reading her comments this morning - what a woman. And what a man her husband OZ. A true hero. May you rest in peace.
You ignorant saps
This woman is an absolute gift to the Army's PR department, and you've all fallen for it
Young, blonde, slim, fit and absolutely well-prepped by Army PR with the medals, and the wedding ring, and the poppy, and the brave grin.
She's no more "incredible" than any other Army widow.
Where are the Army wives who are short, fat, ugly slappers? There must be loads of them. Do you think they are less dignified, less devastated, less representative of our collective loss than this woman?
I say again - you ignorant saps

Show some respect for the dead, idiot. Regardless of what you think of her, show respect for her dead husband.
I very much hope you are drunk and will regret this post in the morning.
show respect for her dead husband
It is because I respect her husband's sacrifice that I protest against the Army using her as a PR pawn in their attempt to drum up public support for a very dodgy military campaign
idiot
Eldridge has it on the nose. Local news showed a mother grieving for her son who was as dignified and devastated by the loss. His pregnant wife was unavailable, they had married not long before his deployment.
I Lost a good friend a few weeks back, his girl friend was on the news but she was not as "together" as ssgt Schmid's wife. Mrs Schmid has been outstanding and i dont think that the army/MOD are using her as a PR asset. i have only been the army for 4 years now and have lost a few friends and i is sad BUT it is good/needed for the public to hear about how hard some of us get it.

What a pity there is such an unplesant bigot like you hanging around here.
You sicken me.
Eldridge,
You ought to be ashamed.
Eldridge I hope you don't voice opinions like yours in the pub. Actually I do. Go on. Do it loud.
