Afghan Bombings Kill 5 Soldiers and interpreter

Soldier from Porter Ranch killed in Afghanistan

Jair de Jesus Garcia

I really don't know where to put this so please where everyone can see, sp please bare with me......This past Friday my little baby brother "Jairzhino" (board name) was killed in Afghanistan, normally I wouldn't' say anything as I do like to keep my privacy. I only mention this to you all because most of you knew him and I don't have a way of contact everyone individually, he was with the Riot Squad from day one and was with us and as such I think you all should know.

I love him dearly as my own son not a brother and as much as I would disagree putting this out this way, I think letting all you know is something he would of wanted.

My personal feelings on the matter of war, and everything associated with it aside I just wanted to share with you all that I was very proud of him and his accomplishments and our family and I don't want him to be just another statistic and forgotten.

I'm so sorry Gunner. I'm new to the board so I didn't know him. Thanks to him and your family for his service and sacrifice.

Eddie,

A lot of people on these boards have known you longer than I have, but I think I speak for any of us in LARS when i say PLEASE, if there is anything we can do to help, let us know.

Man, my sincerest condolences. Jair was a good guy and we had good laughs and good times. As Miguel said, a big part of B&G and I have many good memories. As much as we "****" around here, it begs a bit of reality. I always say we are all family here, differences aside. At the end of the day, he will be missed and soccer really is, just a pastime.

Again, my condolences and my thoughts will be with you and your family and all those who knew him.

If you deem appropriate, I'm sure I have several pictures which I would be more than happy to post or forward to you.


Hang in...
