On March 16th, 2006, the St. Louis metal community lost a member of the family. Amanda Pinson, 21, cousin of Jenn from AllThingsMetal.net, was killed in a mortar attack in Tikrit, Iraq. We honor her memory, and we hope that our troops come home before one more drop of our children's blood is spilled in foreign lands. We offer our deepest sympathies to those she left behind.

Please send donations in Amanda's memory to the following address:
