I don't understand

Fort Bragg soldier found shot to death in Fayetteville

 

                Fayetteville police are investigating the shooting death of a Fort Bragg soldier. Officials say 28-year-old Sgt. Wesley Durden was found shot off Reilly Road Tuesday. The Jacksonville native was a cook with headquarters support company and a member of the 82nd Airborne Division. No other details about the death were released.

                I don’t understand this one at all. Of course, at this time, one can only assume what might have happened to this young man that was fighting in a war for us. That is why I don’t understand it. This young man didn’t die defending our country, like he might have thought, he died in our country.  A soldier doesn’t expect, in these days, to get hurt or to die here. What was someone thinking when they shot him?

            For whatever reason, that someone shot him, I hope he didn’t feel a thing. I hate it that he had to die. Our soldiers are in this unwanted war to keep the terrorist from coming over here and bombing us. They are defending our freedom and someone had to gun him down. He was on our side. I hope the police find who did this and bring them to justice. I hope his parents are doing okay but I know they are suffering. Time is the only thing that heals those wounds. You never get over losing someone that you love but you learn to live with it.
