Gents,
I found this on the ASL Mailing List and I'd like to support it here too.

Gentlemen,
118 sailors of the submarine "Kursk" are dead. They died on duty.
Perhaps for some of you, at some time, they were the enemy. Perhaps you
patrolled the seas, skies and roads, defending your borders from them.
But now, after the Iron Curtain has fallen, by cruel irony of fate the ship
bearing the name of great Russian victory became mass grave for helpless
men.
I dare not to think how they died. I hope it was a quick death.
Now i ask you all to send one
BLANK e-mail to the list, with one word: salute.
Let us unite for one thing. We are either soldiers -
active or retired - or we know so much about war that we could put some
historians and generals to shame. We are, more or less, servants of Mars.
Therefore, we should slaute them. One word, which means so much to their
spirits, and their families.
