Hi all, went to the doctor today, all is well as the spots on my lung have not grown. Looks like the colon cancer and other spots are all in the rear view at this time. A big thank you for all the thoughts and prayers from a great bunch of guys. May God watch over you and yours, thanks so much for having him look over me these past months.
Prayer request: we lost a hero in Afghanistan in 2011 and for some reason it is hitting the family pretty hard this year. Please pray for peace and comfort. ThanksSteve

He was killed 9 September 2011, after 6 years we don't understand why it is hitting us hard this year just know that the Lord has gotten us this far and He will take us the rest of the way.

Name of the FOB? Location? RC SOUTH or east? OR? What unit was he in?Just wondering if there was any overlap...probably notI was there until June of 2010 flying all over RC South and East, some missions over to RC West...
Don,Thank you.Bret was on a small kill team to get the people that planted the IED along that road. They inserted at night and once it started to get light they saw that they where expossed so the fell back to find a better place to set up and found what they thought was a safe place between an old mud hut and a almost 90 deg cliff. they set a primater but most of it towards the hut away from the cilff. Well those people came up the cliff and started firing killing 3. One of the soilder was able employ a morter on the bad guys as they went back down the cliff killing all of them. The other soilders told us that Bret was killed instantly. They told us that it was a 1 in a million hit, went in under his arm traveled through the chest and missed the body armor completely. Bret was able to save one of his soilders the week before his death when the soilder was hit in the arm during a fire fight. We draw peace from knowing that he didn't suffer, he was doing what he loved and he knew Jesus and is home with him now. Thank for your service I will look for your book and give it a read.

I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
