A Missouri "fallen hero"`

In case you hadn't noticed yet, 11 more American soldiers died this week, according to the Pentagon, in Iraq and Afghanistan. One of them was one of our own--a Missourian. Army Sargent Brandon E. Maggart was from Kirksville, Missouri. I searched him on the internet and found the following: Army Sgt. Brandon E. Maggart, Died August 22, 2010 serving during Operation Iraqi Freedom. 24, of Kirksville, Mo.; assigned to the 5th Battalion, 5th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash; died Aug. 22 at Basrah, Iraq, of wounds sustained when insurgents attacked his unit using indirect fire. According to one site, "He leaves behind a wife and a 3 year old son..." I thought it important to mention--both his sacrifice and the number of soldiers who gave this same ultimate sacrifice for us and their country this week.
