To Fallen Brothers

Nov 17, 2009 19:36

The 323rd MI Battalion had its first casualty last Friday. At 1000 hrs on 13 November, SPC Christopher J. Coffland was killed by an improvised explosive device while on patrol in Afghanistan as part of Operation Dark Knight. Chris enlisted after 9/11, was cross-leveled to the 321st MI Battalion, and will receive the Bronze Star and Purple Heart for his actions. He was 43 years old and is survived by his sister Lynn Coffland and parents David and Antionette.

Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers. I will lift my glass, once again (too many times) to our fallen brother.
