Whenever I read an obituary of one of these men, I cannot help but think of how much pain his brothers in that community must be experiencing.

I've heard it said that the first rules of warfare is "Good men die", and that the second rule of warfare is that no one can change rule number one.
It sounds like SSG Thomas was the exception to rule number two.

My sympathy to his teammates, and family.

RIP, Staff Sergeant Thomas.

RIP, Your Team and all SF will miss you.

RIP WARRIOR

RIP brother- "Mission First, Men Always"
