Zac and Lindsay: Our Life As We Know It

Nightfighter Family,It is with my deepest regret that I must inform you of the tragic loss of one our great soldiers. SGT Brian Miller of Team D died from injuries sustained in an accident while on a combat logistic patrol this past weekend. SGT Miller was serving as the truck commander when the accident occurred. The driver also from Team Delta is being treated for non life threatening injuries at this time. SGT Miller has been an outstanding leader and role model for the soldiers he has worked with,he was a battle tested NCO with over 25 combat logistic patrols on this deployment. SGT Miller has left behind a wonderful and loving family:his wife Becky, daughter Nikki and son Austin. I ask that you keep them in your prayers through this very difficult period. The soldiers of the Nightfighter Battalion will pause tomorrow afternoon at 1600 (5 August)to conduct a memorial service for this great American. While we all grieve this loss we know the mission here must go on. We also know SGT Miller, being the soldier he was, would expect us to get right back at it and complete what our country has asked us to do. We are banding together and becoming even closer, which is what happens during adversity. We worry about you as much as you worry about us; right now we all need to be thinking of Becky, Nikki and Austin.Details of the services for SGT Miller will be forthcoming in a few days and will be posted on this website and available through your FamilyReadiness Groups. I will write more and post pictures from the memorial service conducted here within a day or two.

As always,
I am Proud to Serve with your Soldiers
