Soldier killed in Iraq remembered as fearless

Associated Press

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — A 23-year-old combat medic from Alabama who was killed in the Iraq war knew no fear, his mother said.

Spc. Brian “Alex” Vaughn, 23, died June 21 in Ramadi, Iraq, when his unit was attacked by enemy forces using small-arms fire. Spc. Christopher L. Hoskins, 21, of Danielson, Conn., was also killed in the attack.

Both soldiers were assigned to the 1st Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, based at Fort Carson, Colo.

When Vaughn received his first aid certifications at 10 years old, he was ready to save lives, his mother Terry Savage said.

“Anytime we saw a wreck, he was like, ‘Mom, stop the car. I’m trained. I have a card,”’ Savage told The Birmingham News for a story Saturday. “There was no comfort zone for Alex. He knew no fear.”

  I did not know about you Alex until yesterday when I recieved a hero bracelet with your name on it. I always felt a general sense of appreciation for young men and women serving in harms way for freedom's sake. I have spent some time today learning something about you, a very real and special person. While I do not know nearly enough yet about your all too short life, I do know that without question you are a true Hero. I wear your name on my wrist with great pride and will honor your memory whenever asked, "who is Spc Brian A Vaughn?" My deepest sympathy and greatful appreciation to the family left with your dear memory.

  I will miss his laugh, his smile, his hugs, that little quirky grin he gave when he was kidding you, and we would watch Dragon Ball Z until we were nearly blind. I will miss you so much. I love you.

Jose Ricardo Flores-Mejia

It's been 20 years since your passing... However, I never forgotten the day you told me I am married, I am going to have a baby, and day your son was born... You touched some many lives in different ways in your brief time on this earth in ways others can't imagine... Some people can be given a life time on this earth and accomplish nothing, and there are some people who are given a short time and accomplish so much... You Mr. Flores-Mejia aka Ricky was that person and soldier who accomplish so much in your shoft tme... As I see the days pass by, and the war seems to be a distant memory, your memory is still alive in my life, and still on this and like other days with my grandchildren I sit back like we did many times and listen to those West Coast oldies... "Never Forgotten"

Laurie Cobb

She was my 3rd and 5th grade teacher. Today I'm 32 and still think about her. She was the best teacher ever. From her hair children stories to her bubbly happiness and kindness she spread. I'll never forget her. She was the teacher who had lunch with the kids in her classroom so everyone had someone to be with. She made my school experience amazing. I will never forget her.. I love you Mrs. Cobb. Sincerely, Forever in my thoughts, Alyssa (Viau) Capone


Larry E Polley Jr

SPC Polley died almost two decades ago so I don't know if this message will be seen. In honor of Memorial Day, my agency hands out cards with names of those who have fallen. This year, 2023, I received the card for SPC Polley and was inspired to look up more on him. I am thankful for his service and sacrifice. My condolences to his family. He is not forgotten.


Paul C. Holter III

Miss you brother


Alex D Gonzalez

Love you and miss you always. Since you been gone it has been hard for everyone. I know you loved what you did, and I want to thank you for our freedom. If I can have you back home and safe living your life man everything would be different. No matter how much money they would offer me I would rather have you alive and home. Money comes and go so it's not worth losing you.


Christopher D Young

hello my name is Jesus Vega I would like to give my condolences to Christopher's family and friends, I served with him in Iraq and slept in the same quarters. I have many fond memories of him. I have never forgotten his sacrifice. I would like to share that the greatest memory I had of Chris is that he would speak highly of his mom and how much she meant to him. Chris was a strong minded person and looked out for other. He was kind and friendly the he made friends with everyone. Chris was truly a great man! I sincerely apologize for not sharing sooner. but would like to express that Chris's memory will never be forgotten! though he is not with us he will always be in spirit! If this message gets to Christopher's mother I she could know she raised a great man and for that I thank you.

James David Parker

I knew James David Parker as "Dave" when he lived in Solon Ohio. We met when I moved into town from out of state. He and his group of friends were a year or two older than me. Dave was a bright beacon of hope and joy to me. I was an unsure young man in a strange place. Dave introduced me to many people and ensured his friends always saved me a seat in the lunchroom. I have fond memories of him and his friends during that time. I doubt so many people would have been as wonderful toward me without Dave's incredible kindness. I've never forgotten his kindness. I hope to be able to pay it forward someday.
