Kyran
November 7th 2003 a 101st Airborne Blackhawk helicopter was brought down by enemy fire over Tikrit. Among the 6 soldiers killed in the crash was B. CO 5/101st soldier Kyran E. Kennedy. Kyran was one of those guys that everyone liked and respected. He was a family man, a farmer, hunter, wood-worker and much more. He was a positive influence on those around him. He made quite an impression on Matt, and so many of his fellow pilots. He was truly a great man.
As Memorial day nears, I think about Kyran and other lives lost on November 7th, and throughout our Nation's history. I pray that the families of our fallen Lancers are doing well, and I thank these soldiers for their sacrifice.
Yesterday was my friend Katie's 33rd birthday. Instead of spending the evening with friends and family celebrating . . . she was in the hospital delivering her second baby! The baby arrived at 22:46 last night, almost missing his mom's birthday! He is a healthy little guy weighing in at 6lbs 12 ounces and he is named Kyran S. Fuller, a living tribute to the man who gave his life for our country just over 5 years ago.
