Colin L. Powell, who in four decades of public life served as the nation’s top soldier, diplomat and national security adviser, and whose speech at the United Nations in 2003 helped pave the way for the United States to go to war in Iraq, died on Monday. He was 84.

PERSONAL NOTE: Powell was a great American hero. I pray America does not treat him unfairly in death. Too many of our hero's have been denigrated to "they did a good job", or worse. Powell served in Vietnam and the Gulf War. His death was due to a complication of COVID-19. After a medical treatment, his immune system was compromised. My thoughts, prayers, and my gratitude go out tonight to his family. Gratitude, in that, he served our Country, and he made it proud.
