Iowa Falls Native is Killed in Iraq WHO-TV
Iowa Falls, June 8th - An Iowa Falls native in Iraq only three months has becomes Iowa's first woman soldier from Iowa to die in line of duty in Iraq.
Thirty-year-old Jaime Jaenke was killed Monday by an improvised roadside bomb. She was one of two soldiers killed in the attack. Jaenke was stationed in the Al Anbar province in Iraq in the western part of the country. But we don't know exactly where in that part of the region the attack took place.
The news of Jaenke's death has shaken the small Hardin County town of Iowa Falls. The flag outside of her grandfather's home is flying at half staff in honor of their fallen soldier. Friends of her family say Jamie only recently moved to town last summer. She was in the process of starting her own business, running a stable just outside of Iowa Falls, when she was called to duty in the Naval Reserves. Friends also tell us she was serving as a medic, though they were not able to go into detail on the exact nature of her mission on the day she was killed.
Jaenke was raised in Iowa Falls but moved to Minnesota where she spent much of her life until moving back to Iowa. Jaenke leaves behind a nine-year-old daughter. Funeral services are pending.

Eternal Father, Strong to save, Whose arm hath bound the restless wave, Who bid'st the mighty Ocean deep Its own appointed limits keep; O hear us when we cry to thee, for those in peril on the sea.
O Christ! Whose voice the waters heard And hushed their raging at Thy word, Who walked'st on the foaming deep, and calm amidst its rage didst sleep; Oh hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril on the sea!
Most Holy spirit! Who didst brood Upon the chaos dark and rude, And bid its angry tumult cease, And give, for wild confusion, peace; Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril on the sea!
O Trinity of love and power! Our brethren shield in danger's hour; From rock and tempest, fire and foe, Protect them wheresoe'er they go; Thus evermore shall rise to Thee, Glad hymns of praise from land and sea.
SEABEE's Can Do! You make us Proud Jamie!
