Recon Dad, I am so sorry to hear about your son. He as well as your family are in my prayers as well as my families. My Godson James Robles was with your son when he was hit. He sat with your son until help arrived. My Godson sends his prayers to you and your son. Your son is his best friend and James is torn up about this. Please tell your sons, on behalf of James that his brother is praying for him and will see him in June when he comes home. Please keep us posted so that we can inform James of your sons status. God Bless!!!!!!

It is not my son. My son and Rob are Marine Spec Ops team mates serving in Northern Afghanistan.

Rob's family and friends have established a group Facebook page where you can leave messages and find out the latest news.

Holy Father, we pray to You for the family and team of Rob in this dire hour. Please hold them in Your loving and compassionate hands and grant them all the grace and mercy to get through the coming days. We also ask that Rob will come into Your kingdom and be reunited with all the angels and saints and his loved ones again. Thank you Father for the love and concern and outreach of Recon Dad and his son for his team mate and friend. Amen.

I am so, so sorry. We will be praying for his family, his team, and his fellow Brothers who have lost one of their own.

Psalm 23
A Psalm of David.

1 The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell[a] in the house of the LORD
Forever.
