Update on our hero Sgt
Matt Maupin
It is with a sad, heavy heart and a weary hand that I
add this comment this evening. Several news
agencies are reporting that the Army has identified the
remains of Sgt. Keith "Matt" Maupin, who has been
MISSING IN ACTION in Iraq since the 9th of April, 2004;
in ten days, he would have been missing for exactly four
years. No one seems to be reporting any specifics
surrounding how Sgt. Maupin was killed or how long he
has been gone...and those answers may never truly be
answered. I suppose that the only good that has
come from this new information is now Mr. & Mrs. Maupin
can lay there son to rest and finally, after almost four
years, begin the healing process...knowing, finally,
that their child has returned home.
God Bless Matt!
God Bless Mr. & Mrs.
Maupin! God
Bless these United States of America!
