Four soldiers from the Third Infantry Division went missing last week in Lithuania .

Their armored recovery vehicle disappeared in a peat bog near the border with Belarus , a close ally of Russia .

The bodies of three of the four soldiers were recovered Monday after a week-long effort to pull the M88 from the bog.

LZ Granderson: Nearly everything soldiers do is dangerous. They carry deadly weapons. They shoot them in training. They ride around in heavy armored vehicles.

They are sometimes transported in combat helicopters like the Blackhawk .

LZ: The loss of four soldiers from the Third Infantry Division is a tragedy. That the president of the United States had not even heard about it.
