Retired Professional Soldier needs prayers

The family of MSG Ralph Trout (Ret.) has asked to put the word out that he needs prayers following a heart attack and bypass surgery. He remains on the vent since 4/8.

You can reach his daughter Diana at her email dpinkym1@mchsi.com

Mr Trout is in critical but stable condition but has a tough fight ahead. I met him 2 weeks ago and we hit it off when I asked about his faded Master Paratrooper tatoo. I'm pretty sure he said he entered service in 51 and got out in 72 after serving in the 82nd and then 3rd, 5th, 6th and 10th SFGA.

I played him "The Ballad Of The Green Berets" on my Iphone the other night and he smiled and winked at me so I think he intends to fight this.

You can also send E greeting through the hospital website to room number CCU 7

Thanks
Jason

Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio, contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps militiae coelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen.

Fight the good fight MSG Trout. God bless you and your family.
