Hello, all of you know me as Dias, some as Jordan. I don't generally involve myself with religion in any sort of form, however, I feel that the current circumstance that has hit me requires just that of what religion offers - Prayer.

In the past two days two of my closest friends and brothers have been killed in Afghanistan. Specialist Sterling Wyatt and Sergeant Michael Ristau of Charlie Company, soldiers of 5th Battalion 20th Infantry. They were both my men from a platoon I was a medic for and both great individuals. If a smile was not on their face it was due to the seriousness of a situation. Both were KIA and there families are hurting a lot right now. I know they may not hear it directly, but, they need the prayers of everyone. I also ask that you prayer for my brothers who are still in Afghanistan.

Everything is appreciate. Thank you all.

Sincerely,

Jordan/Dias
