Cpl. Matthew P. Wallace
USA

Matthew was born on December 27, 1983. He loved music, vampire novels, and making those around him laugh until they cried. Matthew entered the Army on February 17, 2004. He attended Basic Combat Training and 19D Cavalry Scout Advanced Individual Training at Ft. Knox, Kentucky. He reported to Ft. Hood, Texas on June 29, 2004. He was assigned to 3rd Batallion, 67th Armor Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized). After a month, he was reassigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, where he served as an M1068 Standard Integrated Command Post System Carrier driver, Advanced Battle Command Systems Operator, and Radio Telephone Operator in the Brigade Tactical Operations Center.

Matthew deployed to Iraq in November 2005, in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom 05-07, and conducted missions throughout the 2nd Brigade area of operations, south of Baghdad. On April 25, 2006, he was reassigned to Alpha Troop, 1st Squadron, 10th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, at Forward Operating Base Charlie. In May, he moved north with Troop to Forward Operating Base Falcon. His primary duty position was as a gunner with qualifications for the JAVELIN medium antitank assault weapon system.

On July 16th, Matthew's Bradley Fighting Vehicle was overtaken by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED). He was treated at the field hospital down range and transported to Balad for stabilization. Once this was accomplished, he was transported to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Landstuhl, Germany. His family flew to his side and he passed on July 21, 2006 in the presence of those who loved him most.

Matthew's military awards and decorations include the Bronze Star Medal, the Purple Heart, the Army Achievement Medal, the Army Good Conduct Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Iraq Campaign Medal, the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, the Combat Action Badge, the Driver and Mechanic Badge, and the Expert Rifle Marksmanship Badge.

PFC Jeff Estlack
USA

PFC Jeffrey Paul Estlack was deployed to Iraq with 1st CAV DIV 615th ASB bravo company (from Fort Hood TX) in Feb 2004 and was able to come home for 2 weeks in Oct 2004 to see his son come into the world. When his son Paul was 9 days old he had to go back to Iraq. I remember it like it was yesterday. Jeff was holding Paul and they both had on desert cammies. Jeff is his uniform and Paul in his hat and bib that matched. We walked around and we both held back tears. A kind lady walked up and asked if he was going overseas and we said yes she said she would pray for him and said a simple thank you and that's when reality hit. He was leaving and he had to go soon. we both checked the board and his plan was on time and he needed to go. We both took a deep breath and said our goodbyes. It was a sad moment but I stayed as strong as I could. I didn't want him to feel worse than he already did. So we kissed and hugged one last time and I had to walk away. I don't think I made it 2 steps before the tears fell. I still cry when I think about it today, a year later. But he came home in one piece 6 months later and now we are happy healthy and together again as a family!

Jeff,
I love you with all of my heart. Thank you for all that you do, I could never repay you for the time you had to be away fighting for our freedom.
Jeff is now currently in the National Guard in Prince Frederick MD!

But above all of the confusion of those bound to the ground, he spoke with his Archangels and created Aviation to relieve the wearniess of the infantry's feet, the increase the vision of the artillerymans eyes, the sound of the signalmen and to speed the goods of the quartermasters and others to those in need. And to show his pleasure with his new aerial angels, he created the most special one of all: the Attack Aviator, whose mighty wings silences foes with their firey blast of cannon, rocket and missiles.
