The Minnesota Three Laid to Rest
The three guys killed on our base, Drevnick, Wertish, and Wilcox were laid to rest recently.
Special recognition should go to our own Major Glen McElroy, Lieutenant Mark Martella, Chief Warrant Officer Dave Gool, and First Sergeant Jeff Huttle for aiding the dead and wounded. They ran in when others ran away and that's not an easy thing to do.
From the Pioneer Press in the Twin Cities:
By Saturday afternoon, the Associated Press said Iraqi police had arrested a member of an Iranian-backed militia suspected in the attack. The chief of the Basra provincial police said the militiaman confessed to the attack.
During a search of the house where the suspect and an aide were arrested, Iraqi officials said they seized four Iranian-made rockets and documents listing names of officials to be targeted.
U.S. military commanders believe some Shiite militias have received money and training from Iran, which denies the charge.
