Ping about the comrade of one our Hobbit Hole "troops".

Rest in peace, Sergeant, in American ground that will be forever sacred.

"I told them when we'd go up to the Pentagon, whether he walks off a plane or is carried off, you're not going to leave him in Iraq like you did those guys in Vietnam," Keith Maupin said.

Time to remove my tag line of the past 3+ years and maybe some peace for the Maupins. God bless them.

Prayers for the family of this hero.

I just know that John McCain would not have used waterboarding to find this hero or find out who killed him. We should make sure that Gitmo is closed and the scum who killed him have adquate legal counsel from the ACLU.

McCain, you suck.

God bless and keep the Maupin family in His care. I just notified my son Steve about this. Steve served with Matt in the same Company (The 724th) in Iraq.

So sorry to learn this news. God bless his family and all those in our military, families and those serving. They are, Matt is, the best of the best.

We are not worthy of them.

I have been praying for four years that Matt would be reunited with his family. Reading this news today is heartbreaking. My prayers of support and comfort go out to Keith and Caroyln as they grieve the loss of their dear son and work to bring him home. God bless the Maupins and God bless Sgt. Matt Maupin, thank you for your dedicated service to America. We love you all.

It’s sad. I live in Cincy, so I heard the press conference live. I know they are crushed because there was always that chance he could be found alive. To me, that video released the June after he was captured (even though of poor quality) looked like hi being executed. It’s a shame his parents couldn’t have gotten confirmation sooner. It’s been almost four yeras.

I met Thomas Hamill at a book signing two years ago. He talked about Matt Maupin and how he wished he could get home also. I guess Thomas Hamill was the last American to see him alive.

God Bless Matt Maupin...he served the US the best he could and we are indebted to him.

GB—seeing your tagline always reminded me to pray for Matt. I am sad at this news but glad he has been found.

To my fellow Freepers: once again, the Geneva convention has proven to be ineffective in protecting our captured soldiers. I can only hope Matt’s murderers were wiped out in subsequent firefights with the US military.
