Lt. Justin Garrett Boyes was killed by an IED today at 9:00am Kandahar time. The 26 year old Boyes was just 10 into his deployment... Words I didn't want to hear but there they were, echoing throughout my living room as my wife read the news aloud, and then as always, we let our friends know and waited for the repat timings. So here we are again, lined up to receive another hero home, the plane lands and the casket is lowered and now the vehicles go past us, they are black and shiny with a lonely green gloved hand waving out the window in appreciation. Appreciation for what we are doing, when it is us who are the appreciative ones!
Thank you Lt. Justin Garrett Boyes, for you have made the ultimate sacrifice.
R.I.P. Lt. Justin Garrett Boyes
STAND DOWN SOLDIER
WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOUR ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
YOU ARE NOW HOMEWARD BOUND
