I got a quick call from Jonathan yesterday - his battalion suffered their first KIA a couple of days ago. His unit is operating in Sadr city, and up until a week ago, it had been relatively quiet. Now that the Iraqi cleric has declared US forces the archenemy of Iraq, things have gotten nasty. They are spending most their time "outside the wire", living in an old macaroni plant that they've had to clean out

thing are getting alot busier and faster paced for he and his unit.....keep him in your prayers if you do that sort of thing....i appreciate it

will add him to the list of those in my thoughts.

looks like my brother's unit is getting ready to head back to germany. he flies into baghdad for a class on their redeployment and then hopefully it won't be too much longer until he gets to leave.

Next time you speak to him tell him how very proud we are of him and all of our men/women defending our freedom and way of life here.

I admire them immensely.

May God put a protective shield around them at all times and bring them home safe.

thanks!

have to share a quick story, he got a day off last week and we exchanged a few emails - as an infantry private living in "the field", he's had the pleasure of being on a few sh*t burning details

infantry commonly refer to non infantry types as POG's (piece of garbage).....i reminded him that while I may have been a POG, i never had to burn sh*t
