PFC David Drake

Tommye Ann & Family,
We are so sorry to hear about David. He was good kid who became a fine young man. We loved having him at our house. He will always have a place in our hearts.

May God sustain you at this time.

My name is Bill Adams in Austin, Texas. My daughter is 1LT Rebekah Frost who is currently stationed at FOB Ghazni with David. She tells me that David is indeed an American HERO who was willing to lay down his life for his friends and his country. His sacrifice was the greatest that could be paid and he is an example of everything that is right. During this time, our hearts go out to all his family and friends. You can rest assured that he will never, ever be forgotten. Rest in peace David. May God bless your family and give you peace.

My heart goes out to the family. My thoughts and prayers are with you through this sad time. David is a American Hero. He served his country proudly. May the Lord wrap his arms around you all and give you the comfort and strength in the coming days. May the Lord watch over the men/women serving with the 515th Engineer Company.

My heart goes out to you. Thank you for raising a Hero for us. May God's loving arms wrap around you all at this time.

From Military Mom to another, Much love and prayers.
