From Cheryl Reser 06/27/06:
J. Adan Garcia was a good friend of my son, and they were serving together in Iraq when he was shot. He went by "Adam". His unit is still there, but is scheduled to return in about a month. Adam was very friendly and outgoing and was loved by all who knew him. He was shot on May 22, 2006 when insurgents attacked their convoy. He was evacuated to Landstuhl, but unfortunately was determined to be 'brain dead'. He left a will stating that he didn't want to be kept alive in that condition and that he wanted to donate his organs to other sick and injured soldiers. He was flown to Bethesda Naval Medical Center where his organs, all in excellent shape, were harvested, and he passed away on May 27. |
