Swift Honors Fallen Soldier


Tay­lor Swift has reached out to the fam­ily of a fallen Marine. Sgt. Wade D. Wil­son loved Tay­lor. A com­bat buddy, for­mer Marine Cpl. Josh Mar­reel, says in a YouTube post that Sgt. Wil­son “even slept with a poster of you in between our beds in Afghanistan.” Sergeant Wil­son was killed May 11th dur­ing com­bat in Afghanistan. So his com­bat friends asked Tay­lor if she would reach out to his par­ents to honor his sac­ri­fice. Tay­lor has done that. And she sent a hand­writ­ten note to the fallen Marine him­self, a note that was attached to some flow­ers. “Wade, thank you for lov­ing my music,” she wrote. “I won’t for­get it and I will never for­get you. Love, Tay­lor Swift.” Tay­lor promised the fam­ily she would wear Sergeant Wilson’s dog tags in her next music video.
