Received this email about 10 minutes ago. I've met the guy, wish the best for him and his family.

I received a disturbing phone call early Sunday morning from SFC Anderson (Ft Carson KM) stating that SGT Fowler (MP) was critically injured and his MWD Dak (PEDD) was KIA from a blast from an IED to the vehicle he was traveling in. He was medevac to GE and is currently in serious, but stable condition.



Please share with your handlers and here is their address if they choose to send cards to. Take a moment and remember him and his family in your thoughts and prayers, as well as others that are currently deployed/getting ready to deploy.

I'm trying to get a picture up but it might have to wait till I get home.

Dax was a big ole' shaggy shepard.

DAmn sons of guns and their IED's

Keep up the good fight.

First off; My most sincere condolences to the families to all of those who have given/lost their lives, so far.

I also hope for a speedy, 100% recovery to SGT Fowler. I'm also very sorry he lost is partner, Dak.

The more and more this crap happens, the more I lean toward pulling all our troops and then carpet bombing the sh^% out of every square inch of that waste of space. I understand that there are innocent/good people over there that need help, it just pisses me off.

Seems every day we loose more and more troops......I know that there is a "big picture" objective here, but damn, when do we just turn the task at hand over to the Iraqi gov'ment. Those people need to learn how to take care of themselves.

I'm not a Bush hater either, he's my commander in chief and I'm pretty sure its hard to make the US happy.....let alone the whole damn world

Im just sick of our soldiers giving their lives for what seems to me to be no reason. We "liberated" Iraq. Hussien is no longer in power. There is a new government that is holding elections.

Its their job now. Not ours. Lets get our folks home and leave it up to them.

Sink or swim, that mess should no longer be our responsibility.

Am I the only one that feels this way?

If you can, Matt, please pass along me and my family's deepest condolences and best wishes for a quick recovery. BTW you have a PM

Update:

SGT Fowler has been moved to San Antonio, TX to the Fisher House. I have his complete address if you would like to send him a card or letter, PM me and I'll give it to you.

Awesome!

Sent you a PM, thanks for letting us know about it..

Sorry to hear about the dog of war being KIA,
