Yeah. I really don't know 100%...bc he commented on a FB post of mine...like literally the first contact I had with him in 8 or so years...but it was about going out to something & I got the date wrong. So I deleted the post (and thus his comment) and re-posted with the correct date. So I didn't respond to him since I deleted the post. I wish I would have. Like posted on his wall....Ugh. That was within the last month. Then this happened.

He is currently in a German military hospital. He had been stationed in the US in the south(after being in the middle east) so I don't know when or he left the country.

the last news i received is that he is still in a base hospital in Germany. He is in a medically induced coma...it was an ambush/IED attack. He has a head injury, severaly broken and franctured bones, and his lungs are affected. His family and him need lots of prayers!!

and if you remember, he was awareded the purple heart (i think that's what it's called) a few years ago for injuries sustained in Iraq.
