First Iraq death to hit home

I didn’t know him well, but I have had dinner with Maj. Stuart Wolfer, our daughters played together a bit and then he was killed in Iraq. Even when I heard that two local soldiers had been killed a few weeks ago it did not hit me in the gut. Only when I realized it was Wolfer and that I knew his family did my stomach sink. We go about our daily business totally unaware that we are at war. Then it hits home. Druzin in the Statesman. Petraeus questioned about Wolfer’s death.
