Hey, I'm OK. Just so you know, there is like 35,000 soldiers in the 1st Armored Division, so no reason to get all panicky.
— Michael W. Mitchell, in an e-mail to his stepmother
Mitchell's stepmother had asked him to contact the family after hearing that a soldier in his unit had been killed. One day after reassuring her that he was safe, insurgents in Baghdad attacked and killed Mitchell and seven other soldiers.
