When we gained accountability for our company, we breathed a sigh of relief only to have the mood turn extremely somber when we were told some of the MP Soldiers had been hit. The news began for a long night; one which I will never forget. The MPs work down the hall from us so we see them on a daily basis and have developed friendships with many of these Soldiers. I personally did not know these Soldiers but the sadness I felt for their company was immeasurable.
Within a few short hours, an angel flight was scheduled to take our fallen comrades away. We stood on the flight line to pay our respects and as a family of Soldiers, support each other.
I ask that you pray for the families of these Soldiers and for the continued safety of us that remain.

Hard to know what to say in times like this. My thoughts and prayers are with their families and with all of you. Sadness and both pride fill my heart. I am sad for the loss of a fellow soldier but yet so proud of the daily sacrifice you and the men and woman in the armed forces make each and every day for all of us at home. You are all truly courageous and our heroes. God Speed to you! Tracey
