Robert ODell
Gents
We raised a glass at the unit and VTC'ed to outstations for Robert on the 23rd. Robert was KIA in the Mosul bombing 12/21/04 and it has now been 5 years.
Those of you who knew Rob, say a silent prayer for his widow and three kids this holiday.
Great guy, out standing soldier and is missed every day.
Regards
Angry
