  My sincere condolances to the Wilhelm family. Any soldier killed is one less american hero in my opinion. I feel that each and every person who volunteers to join the service in defense of our contry deserves 110 percent of our support. I do not believe in the old beliefs that in order to make a good solider you have to ride them till they break.

I have two children in the Army. No mater how hard they try the are not able to make PT. Our family tends to look less heavy than they are. They have heavy muscle or wahtever.

If our dedicated and decorated soldiers work and really try to be the best they can be, why do we ride them and label them as unfit soldiers?

My most sincere condolances to the Wilhelm family. May God bless you all in light of this horrable tragedy.

  Dear family Keiffer - How I feel for you all and how I will be lifting you up and praying that you can face each day knowing that Keiffer's life and death is not in vain. Somehow, somewhere, his and your story will prevent anothe son or daughter and family from being tormented like this. I lost my brother who was older but he is still alive in my heart and soul. I think of it without even trying as I live here in Texas and he lives in another place....state?...heaven. ...where there is no pain. I even visit with him from time to time and tell him that I'll see him soon. And in the scheme of a lifetime or eternity, I know this to be true. He may be taken away from you phsycially, but he is still very much alive in your heart and your soul....and you likewise are there with him. A brother is different than a son though....and I cannot even imagine your pain after being so hopeful for him to find his place as a young man. I just pray that you will be strong and that you are surrounded by loving arms and kindred spirits and that somehow each day is a a little better until you come to that place in your journey where you know that you will be united again. Keiffer's life was not in vain. His story has touched me as I too have a son that doesn't quite fit in and struggles with it all....Know that people are praying for you.

  Thank you Pvt. Keiffer Wilhelm for your service to us all.

May God wrap his loving arms around the Wilhelm family and hold them so gently but firmly letting them know that they are assured grace, peace and love. He Will see you through this tragic loss caused as a result of his fellow soldiers selfish, evil actions.

GOD WILL HOLD THEM ALL ACCOUNTABLE.

TO THE FAMILY: I know your loss of this precious child is Deeper than Tears but

GOD PROMISES MERCY:

When a person reacts positively to tragedy--that's a miracle. Psalm 23 concludes with the glorious line: "Surely goodness, and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life." That's god's way of saying that life will often be filled with goodness, but that even when God's goodness cannot be seen, his mercy can be experienced! In the midst of tears, heartbreak, enormous loss, and terrible sorrow, suddenly a sweet mood, like a gentle kiss, will touch your wounded heart. That experience is called "MERCY". It comes as an expression of God's Love.

The good news is that God promises "MERCY" adequate enough to meet any tragedy.

Love and Peace to you all:

Proud Army mother of US Army Iraq veteran.

  I am sorry to hear of your family's loss. It's sad that other military personnel would do this to one of their own. May God bless Keiffer and his family and may peace eventually be found for his family, friends, and loved ones.

  No one should have to endure what you did Pvt. Wilhelm. Soldiers should be brothers in arms and stick up for one another and not drag each other down. Rest in peace and may God be with your family to find peace in your passing.

  To the family and friends of Private Keiffer P. Wilhelm, I am so sorry for your loss. It is very unfortunate that those who were supposed to have guide him and helped to protect his life, pushed him in to taking his own. I want you to know that I am an ordinary citizen, who may not agree with everything that our government tells our soldiers to do, however I support them 110%. They are doing a very honorable thing serving our great country. Which I can't say for too many other types of jobs. I think it is terrible that some in our country have forgotten what our country was built on hardwork, honor and most importantly FREEDOM, and yes that includes FREEDOM of speech and religous beliefs. Have we as a country forgotten why we wanted to become America the land of the free and the home of the brave? Everything our relatives who migrated here risking their lives is slowly becoming more and more like the places that they chose to leave behind for a better life here in the US. It's time to take a stand before it's to late. What happened to our willingness to work hard. And as for the four men responsible, if found to be so, may they live the rest of their lives in shame and behind bars.

Sincerely,

K. Bascom

US citizen

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.

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.
