My most sincere condolences to the family and freinds of Spc. Christopher G. Patton. I trust God will comfort you during this painful time as only he can. Spc. Christopher G. Patton, stand down Sir. Mission complete, we'll take the fight from here.
If at all possible, it will be a great honor to break the Pig outta the barn, and stand for this hero.

We all know the sacrifices that our soldiers make. Spc. Christopher G. Patton has made those sacrifices so that our world will be a better place. He made those sacrifices without any reservations. Now his friends and family must also make many sacrifices.
I am truly sorry for the pain that this family is going through. Please find some measure of comfort knowing that Spc. Christopher G. Patton will always be remembered as a true American Hero.
America is the greatest, most powerful nation in our world. The success of our nation can be contributed to two things. The compassion found in the hearts of America’s citizens and the unselfish conviction to doing what is right by America’s soldiers. An American soldier sets the bar for being compassionate, dedicated, professional, and sincere in doing his duty. There are three things that are important to American soldiers. Honor, sacrifice, and remembrance. Spc. Christopher G. Patton, you have exemplified honor with your actions, you have made the ultimate sacrifice for your nation, and you will always be remembered as a shining example of America’s best.
Spc. Christopher G. Patton, your war is over. You have fought a gallant battle. You have made a difference in the future of our nation and in our world. Rest easy my combat brother. Rest in peace.

A person is not judged a Hero by the way he died-rather by the way he lived.
The price of freedom is visible at any Veteran's Hospital.
If you want to salute, or cover your heart with your hand, or just stand silently holding the flag, it's your choice. The only thing I request is that you do it in a respectful manner. I am a combat veteran. I served my country. I led young men and boys face to face in combat with their enemy. I also am a disabled veteran. War related. I have certainly earned the right to salute in a respectful manner but my salute is no more important than any nonveteran standing in our flag line. My love for America and my respect for our fallen warriors is no more or no less important than anyone else that comes to our PGR mission. I have fought for my country and I will continue to fight for the rights of every person that stands in our flag line.
Georgia PGR.... PART OF IT- PROUD OF IT!
If it's truly not about us, then it doesn't matter what logo we wear on our backs as long as we honor our warriors in a respectful manner.
If it takes a village to raise a child, then it should take the nation to honor it's warriors. |

They May See the good you do as self-serving. Continue to do good!
They May See your generosity as grandstanding. Continue to be generous!
They May See your warm and caring nature as a weakness. Continue to be

My Son was born in March of 1987, about the same age as Chris.
I can only begin to imagine the loss this Family is faced with.
I was able to attend the arrival today at Briscoe Field and traveled along the route to Wages. The community expression of appreciation mixed with sympathy was overwhelming. I did not know Chris, but I cried for him and his family.
At 52 years old, I can only be thankful for his dedication to his Country and the ultimate sacrifice of his life.
I am proud of this soldier that I did not even know, yet he defends me and my family.
I am also thankful and proud of this Patriot Guard who appears and rides proudly, "flags a-flyin" for those who have fallen.
May God comfort and bless all.
Thanks Christopher, for what you did, what you believed in, and your sacrifice.
