Four months ago, a young solder completed some of the
Army's toughest training. He was one of a select few who successfully
completed the rigorous hardships and became a Green Beret. He was sent
to Afghanistan, where he was part of a small Special Forces unit, in
Paktika District. Paktika District is next to Kabul, so I had the
pleasure of talking with this special young man. I only met him twice,
each time was when our two units were working a mission together. I
regret, I have no photographs of him.
Saturday evening, the LEP working in Paktika met with an informant,
outside the wire, and was handed a suicide vest. Not wanting to carry
explosives into the FOB, the LEP left the vest behind. A short time
later, the LEP returned with two Green Berets. They looked at the
suicide vest and determined it was fully armed and too dangerous to
move. They attached C-4 to the vest and detonated it in place. By this
time, it was dark. They decided to leave everything and return in the
morning.
Sunday morning, the LEP and two Green Berets returned to where they blew
up the suicide vest. The three were down on their hands and knees,
examining the vest, to see if there was any evidentiary value. An
insurgent, wearing an ANA uniform approached, unnoticed. The coward,
emptied his AK-47 at the three. When it was over, the young Green Beret
solder, lay dead.
His name was Patrick Quinn, and I wanted you to know who he was.

U.S. soldiers and a member of the NATO-led coalition were killed on
Saturday in one of the deadliest days for Americans and other foreign
