Sorry for the confusion. This is a picture of Travis by brothers son that was severly wounded in 2005. The other pictures are of "TJ" my son's best friend that my wife and I were very close too. They had been friends for over 15 years. TJ was like a son to us as the two of them were always together. TJ and Brian had started to enlist in the Army together, but never did. TJ had everything you could hope for; Faith, Honor and Love for his Country. Joshua 1:9,Proverbs 16:9 and John 15:13 carried him. Our family will forever be indebted to him. We all lost him two weeks before he was to come home on leave. He was awarded the Bronze Star and the Purple Heart for his actions.

Scott, I'm sorry for the loss of your son. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. One of the saddest parts of a war are the young Hero's that have sacrificed their life for their country. Your son will always be a Hero and will never be forgotten. Thank you for raising a son that so unselfishly fought and defended my family's freedom. We will forever be indebted to him.
