Thank you for telling Matt’s story. And for your story of your friendship.

Make the most of every day. Enjoy life, the little things, as you would have wanted Matt to do if he’d come home.

He’s home in his family’s heart and now in all our hearts who read this.

Bless you for being his friend.

Thomas Hamill mentioned PFC Matt Maupin in his book, Escape in Iraq. I met Mr. Hamill at a book signing and he had both honor and respect for the members of the 724th that were lost in this engagement.

George W. Bush often carried Maupin’s picture with him, according to Keith Maupin. He said the former president routinely met with him and his ex-wife whenever they traveled to Washington for an update.

Very poignant.

RIP Matt Maupin.
