Damn. At least he left fighting for the country he loved. Utmost respect for anyone who serves their country.
RIP

Thanks for letting us know, stammer.

Kraut is the only confirmed, but most of us believe that PFC Green and/or Judas have died, one probably in combat, the other doing who knows what.

Well, PFC Green was going Navy. I don't know how many Navy deaths there have been in either of the recent wars, I suppose it also depends on what you're doing in the Navy, but I thought he was going to be stationed on a ship. A lot less dangerous that what KK was doing.

Pretty sad to hear this, KK was a crazy bastard back when MOH:AA was in development but also one for the details like myself, i remember that he had a springfield 03 rifle and was asking 2015 why their ingame model was missing a section at the back of the rifle.
Was always one for mad quotes as well, quick on the trigger with insane comebacks to being flamed and just in general he seemed to have a good sense of humour. Still kinda hard to accept that he died almost a year ago and we're just now hearing of it. As already said no-one thought much of him not posting as he was overseas a lot, doubt anyone thought this would happen. Just raises more questions about people who were regulars here and just semed to have disappeared out of the blue, Judas being one of the main ones. cry:

That totally sucks. I considered KK a friend and used to compliment him on his Mustang. We used to talk Ford stuff since i had the Fairlane and was building a Shelby Coupe.
R.I.P. to a well respected forum friend. You'll be missed.

wow, RIP man. I had no idea he was in Iraq. I sorta remember him talking about his Afghanistan deployment and he didn't really see much combat. this really hits home, especially since i was at arlington several weeks ago and had no idea. i wish i could have seen his grave if you could get to it

You see that kind of stuff in movies and dont realize the true meaning of some things until you're hit with something like death. He was a true hero.

Wow...this hits home hard..it's surreal when it's someone you know and used to talk to a lot...my heart and prayers go out to his family. If there is anyway we could all...idk..sign something and send to his family just showing them how many people cared for him, I think they would like that.

This is sad news.
I remember a while back he made a post talking about some action he had seen. He described hear a .22 being shot off near him. He was then told it wasn't a .22 but it was a rifle round whizzing by him. Sad I never really new him in person, he seems like he was a great guy.
