grown very close to the both
of them. To lose a friend is
hard, but to lose one that you
know exactly what happened
and how the events unfolded
them selves is even more
ex cru ciatin g . We are all
mourning the loss o f our
friends and will for the rest
of our lives. However, the
w ar
c o n tin u e s,
and
tomorrow we will be back
up in the air flying, trying to
shove their accident out of
our minds while we control
the aircraft. Because of these
events, we are all a little
emotional, scared and wary
about flying. I am asking you
all to keep us ALL in your
thoughts and prayers for the
rest of us to return home
safely w ith o u t fu rth e r
incident. I thank you all for
your continued support of us
troops halfway around the
w orld. P lease h elp our
fam ilies as they w ill be
worried and stressed out. I
am not the only individual
who is deployed and if you
know a family who has a
loved one deployed, know
that they live with this daily
and are never able to replace
the thoughts. Our unit is at a
crucial point now and must
recover from her loss if we
are to co n tin u e to fight
e ffectiv ely in this harsh
environment. Daily I pray for
my soldiers and that they will
remain out of harms way, but
as God has displayed to us
all, it is not always in his
plans. Again, I thank you for
your support of not only our
troops, but our families as
well. If you happen to know
one of the families that lost
a loved one, please help them
and comfort them. They are
going to need it.”
