My son was just asking me two days ago if I had heard anything about Matt Maupin, he's says we get news better and quicker than they do in Iraq. My son Steve knows him as a fellow member of the 724th..
I just pinged proudarmymom with this sad news. Her son also in the 724th returned home wounded and is being treated for possible nerve damage from taking an AK 47 round in his right shoulder. Prayers for him as well.
Sad Ping
My heart is breaking...for this man's family, and for the others in 724th...
Pinging the Hobbit Hole.
It is eerie that Matt was being discussed here yesterday. My prayers to his family and for the safe return of all our military. God Bless them.

That's about all I can say.
I knew this was the strongest possibility, but I never stopped praying for Mr. Maupin, and kept looking for news bits for any info on him.
Sending prayers to his family.
Oh my God! I can't believe this! My heart is breaking for Matt's family. I will have to call my son, who is at WRAMC to tell him this sad, sad news as we were just talking about Matt before he left. My thoughts and prayers are with Matt's family at this time.
