Jason Meyer's last letter to his mother-in-law joked that his trip to Iraq was like "being on a beach with no water." Meyer, from Howell, Mich., had just celebrated his first year of marriage, and he and his wife, Melissa, had been planning to start a family. Meyer, based at Fort Stewart, was killed in combat April 8.
