Default RIP 2LT Kile West...
Got one of those phone calls I hate getting today, my mom called me crying and I knew something was wrong. We lost a family friend this weekend to the war in Iraq.
Kile was from Pasadena, dont know if any of yall knew him or not. He was stationed up here at Fort Hood and was scheduled to come home for a couple weeks on R&R next week I think. Being in the Army myself I HATE getting these phone calls...

PLEASE EVERYONE PRAY FOR HIS FAMILY IN THIS HARD TIME, THEY NEED ALL THE HELP THEY CAN GET!

R.I.P KILE!!!
