Monday 11th august A British soldier killed when a suicide bomber rammed a car into his convoy in
Kabul was named as Signaller Wayne Bland.
"Wayne was a much-loved son, grandson, brother and uncle who served his country with distinction and
sadly paid the ultimate price. He was our true hero."
Signaller Bland, a bachelor with no children, was a passionate footballer and fan, supporting Leeds,
where he lived and had grown up.
The 21-year-old, from Leeds, died and two soldiers from his 16 Signal Regiment were wounded during
the attack on the eastern outskirts of the capital on Monday afternoon. Afghan officials said three
civilians were killed and 12 injured.
Signaller Bland's Commanding Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Justin Hodges, said: "Signaller Wayne Bland
was a superb soldier, full of character and a highly popular member of 16 Signal Regiment.
"His loss is all the more poignant for his family who were expecting him home on leave in the next
few weeks. Wayne will be laid to rest on the 28th

A True Soldier is tough indeed
standing tall and strong when there is a need
A Soldier also feels sadness, pain, and sorrow
Sometimes not looking forward to the trials of tomorrow
When a Soldier is wounded in battle
the nerves of his buddies it does rattle
When news reaches friends and family at home
how their worries and minds begin to roam
A wounded Soldier feels inadequate at best
stopping him from much needed healing rest
A wounded Soldiers wonders will he ever be alright,
trusting in God that he'll make it through the night.
When a Soldier is wounded far beyond repair
the loss and pain felt can not compare
The Cost of a Soldier is set so very high
they assure our freedom will always apply
To stand beside a Soldier and walk through his pain
will humble a civilian, no longer to complain
Love, patience, trust and hope is what a Soldier needs
to get them through some very treacherous deeds
Dear Lord please watch over our Military today
as they work to keep our freedom everyday
For the wounded and the families of Soldiers lost
Please Bless them with abundant love, for we know not the cost.
The Cost of a Soldier is set so very high
our support for them we should never deny
GOD BLESS YOU WAYNE A TRUE HERO {R}{I}{P}
GOD CALLED YOUR NAME SO GENTLY
THAT ONLY YOU COULD HEAR
NO ONE HEARD THE FOOTSTEPS
OF A ANGEL DRAWING NEAR
SOFTLY FROM THE SHADOWS
THERE CAME A GENTLE CALL
YOU CLOSED YOUR EYES AND WENT TO SLEEP
AND QUITLY LEFT US ALL
ALWAYS THINKING OF YOU
ALL MY LOVE ANNE xxx
Beautiful Angel Up Above ♥

I Still Miss You
This yearning in my heart
This confusion in my mind
The words left unspoken
Haunts me all the time
Everyday I watch pass by
With an emptiness in my life
And a hole in my heart
Where only you belong
There are nights I wake up crying
And wishing you were here
To hold me in your arms
And kiss away my tears
There is something that keeps me holding on -
What I'll never know
But one day things will go my way
And I'll have you in my arms

But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared.

Her beauty is beyond belief
A smile could light a night sky
But before my angel could grow wings
My angel had to die
♥ ♥ ♥
So now my angel lives in side me
I take her every where
I dream my angel visits me
& tells me she is always there
♥ ♥ ♥
So I am a lucky person
I have a an angel in my heart
But everyday i wish we didnt have to part

The angels are dancing
In the starlight tonight
Lighting the stars
With candles so bright.
ჱܓ
Smiling as they dance
Through the heaven above
Caressing the star tip
With satin laced gloves.
ჱܓ
The stars twinkle brightly
To let the angels know
No matter where they dance
The starlight will glow.
ჱܓ
Waltzing in time to
The harps lovely tune
Winking to the smile
On the face of the moon.
ჱܓ
Open your eyes
Stare at the heaven above
Imagine the angels
Dancing with love.
ჱܓ
If you look even closer
I am sure you will see
Grandma and grandpa
Angels swaying so free.
ჱܓ
Angels so radiant
They light up the sky
Dancing to the choir singing
The sweet by & by.
ჱܓ
Angels sway softly
In robes spun out of gold
Spreading star dust
As they dance on their toes.
ჱܓ
Slippers of silk on their
Little feet as they leap
Dancing on the star tips
Looking so sweet.
ჱܓ
Next time you look
At the stars twinkling so bright,
Imagine the angels
Dancing in the moonlight.
