My wife’s family is neighbors with my family out in the middle of nowhere here. Since I was planning on staying late at work my wife’s sister was going over to our place to hang out with her.

My wife’s sister saw a state trooper car and a government vehicle parked outside my parent’s place as she drove by and my wife just called me and told me.

I called my parents since my phone isn’t charged and I forgot the charger and they had no way of getting a hold of me.

My mom was in tears and asked me to come over as soon as possible.

My brother is deployed to Afghanistan in a very dangerous area and I fear the worst so I’m heading over there. My mom was too emotional to tell me anything over the phone.

Lock this thread or whatever I don't care. I won't be on here for the rest of the evening most likely.

Pray for us or keep us in your thoughts if you're not into that.

    I'm pretty sure the trouble is that it may be that his brother was killed in action, and the government guys are there to tell his family.

    My brother stepped on a landmine at 0200 EST and died.

    Thank you for your thoughts.

    My mother is a wreck. Two of my brothers are coming home in the next day or so. The rest of us are already here.

    I'm online passing off work duties so i can stay with my family as long as they need me.

    Thank you for the thoughts and prayers everyone. Right now I don't really feel anything. I'm just completely at a loss not just for words but even for thoughts or emotions. But my mom is just heartbreaking to see so me and my 5 brothers and 1 sister


    fuck! I just typed that and now it's freaking wrong. 4 brothers and 1 sister are doing our best to console her.

    I don't want to say too much online since his mission was very dangerous but he was with a small group, very small in the boondocks. The last time I talked with him was the day he was deployed.

    He was really nervous and this is a guy who can bench 350 pounds, arms like tree trunks and the endurance of an animal.

    He knew he was in danger too and it showed whenever he spoke with my mom.

    Pieman, my older brother Steven died six years ago this September. I won't say that I know what you're going through, because there's no way I could. You have my deepest condolences, and even though we've never really interacted or anything, I want you to know that you and your family are in my heart tonight.

    I want to thank your family for the sacrifice that your brother has made. Having never met him or you, I can still say with absolute certainty that he was a better and braver man than I.

    I will say a prayer for him and those who loved him.
