Author Topic: Shifty's son needs our prayers and good Karma (Read 2242 times)

Got word from Shifty of 880 FAA squadron that his son Thomas lost both his legs in an IED explosion in Iraq.

His son was serving with Delta 1-5 of the 1st Cavalry. Seven other soldiers were also wounded in the attack

At this point Shifty's son has been flown to Germany. Shifty and his oldest son will be flying there to be with him. The word from the Army is that Thomas is in stable condition.

Hopefully in time Shifty will be able to let us know where we can send cards and well wishes for Thomas. Obviously things are a bit crazy for the family at this point.

At this point all the prayers, best wishes, karma etc are needed to speed Thomas's recovery.

With that in mind all best wishes for a speedy recovery from the 80th Headhunters.

Hang in there Shifty and family.

Tragic. So sorry to hear this. I have a family member over there and I worry a lot about her suffering a similar fate. Not the praying sort, but best wishes to Thomas, Shifty and family. I hope he pulls through.

~~to all our men and women who put themselves in harms way for us.~~
